Maritime Museum Flensburg – experience maritime history directly at the harbor

The Maritime Museum Flensburg is one of the most popular attractions of the Fördestadt and a special destination for all those interested in ships, the sea, and North German history. Located directly at the historic harbor, the museum showcases the maritime past of Flensburg and the German-Danish region – from commercial shipping to the rum trade, as well as the importance of the Baltic Sea as a living and economic space.

With authentic exhibitions, historical exhibits, and interactive offerings, the Maritime Museum Flensburg makes the world of seafaring tangible for adults, families, and children. Visitors discover exciting stories about captains, ships, shipyards, and life by the water.

After the tour, the museum café invites guests to enjoy a cozy break. Visitors can savor coffee specialties, tea, cakes, cold drinks, and the famous Flensburg rum balls – even without a museum visit.

The Maritime Museum Flensburg is largely accessible without barriers. The exhibition areas are accessible without physical barriers, except for the rum cellar; seating options and barrier-free offerings support a pleasant visit.

Whether as a family outing, on a rainy day, or as a cultural highlight during a vacation at the Flensburg Fjord: The Maritime Museum Flensburg combines history, experience, and maritime flair at a unique location by the harbor.
