Fischkutter

Baltic Sea

At the Baltic Sea, people know what tastes good: Fish rolls, for example, a hand-brewed Klüvers beer or a glass of white wine from the Ingenhof winery, where pioneer Melanie Engel produces Schleswig-Holstein wine. If you want to enjoy excellent food, a fabulous overnight stay and a short journey back in time, then Hotel “Gut Immenhof” is the place to be.

Fish rolls ahoy!

A fish roll is the perfect snack for a day by the water. It tastes as salty as the air that caresses your lips. It makes you feel full and happy without being heavy on the stomach. No wonder the fish roll makes many people’s hearts beat that bit faster! Our “Fischbrötchenstraße” (Fish Roll Street) combines all the fish roll stalls on the Baltic Sea in Schleswig-Holstein into the tastiest mile in the north. Each has its own unique charm, and everything you could wish for is there. Whether it’s cycling to your favourite fish stall or looking for the next one on the way – on Fish Roll Street, an appetite for more is never far away.

World Fish Roll Day

Every year in May, Schleswig-Holstein celebrates World Fish Roll Day. On this day, everything between Glücksburg and Travemünde revolves around this North German street food classic. Along the Baltic Sea coast and even in “Holstein Switzerland”, this cult bread roll can be savoured everywhere and discussed in its countless variations – from the down-to-earth to the unusual, from the traditional to the experimental. Let us surprise you! An overview of the local events can be found on social media.

Handmade in Holstein

The historic fish hall at the harbour in Neustadt in Holstein has been home to the Klüvers brewery since 2004 – a meeting place for craft beer fans, locals and tourists alike. “We brew our beer by hand using Holstein creativity and Holstein ingredients. Naturally, of course, in compliance with Germany’s strict ‘Purity Law’ in brewing,” say the down-to-earth Klüvers about their brewing craft. The old sailor family, which switched to the fish trade and today also runs a delicatessen manufactory and a harbour smokehouse in Niendorf, attaches great importance to quality and transparency. The ten Klüvers beer varieties can also be discovered during a “Craft Beer Tasting” session and a guided tour of the brewery.

Winery Ingenhof

Wine growing in Schleswig-Holstein? Melanie Engel, co-creator of the family-run Ingenhof and wine pioneer in the far north, had to fight a number of prejudices from the outset. But the site conditions for a vineyard on their approximately eight hectares of land with a southern slope in the middle of Holstein Switzerland were good. Today, Melanie Engel and her team grow three excellent white wine varieties and three red wine varieties, which can be sold in the “Weinremise” – a specialist wine retailer – and tasted on a guided vineyard tour that also introduces the winery. In the summer months, the farm’s own field café is also open: With a view of the strawberry plantations of the Ingenhof, you can enjoy homemade cakes and pies, as well as coffee specialities.

A piece of paradise

Between Malente and Eutin lies a gem directly on the Kellersee lake: Hotel “Gut Immenhof”, probably the most famous estate of the traditional German “Heimatfilm” – a key genre of German cinematography. In recent years, the ensemble of buildings has been converted into a spacious hotel complex in the traditional style of Schleswig-Holstein country estates. The cosy suites reflect the sustainable philosophy of the hotel with handmade furniture, natural materials and mineral colours. Two restaurants never fail in delighting those guests seeking relaxation: “Restaurant Rodesand”, which serves fine international cuisine, and the “Melkhus”, which was included in the list of Bib Gourmand restaurants – tasty cuisine at moderate prices – by the Michelin Guide shortly after its opening in October 2021.
