Schifffahrtsmuseum Flensburg

Flensburger Schifffahrtsmuseum – Maritime Geschichte am Hafen entdecken

The Flensburg Maritime Museum is an exciting destination for everyone wanting to explore the maritime history of Flensburg and the German-Danish border region. Located directly at the historic harbor at Schiffbrücke 39, the museum tells the story of seafaring, shipbuilding, trade, and life on board.
In the varied permanent and temporary exhibitions, visitors learn how shipping has shaped Flensburg. Historical ship models, maritime exhibits, and interactive hands-on stations make the exhibition interesting for adults, families, and children alike. A special focus is on Flensburg's history as a rum city and its overseas trade with the Caribbean, which also critically examines the city's colonial past.
Those who want to dive even deeper into the history can participate in guided tours and special educational offers. The museum café and the museum shop invite visitors to linger and browse during their visit. The adjacent museum shipyard in the historic harbor can also be easily combined with a tour.
Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The museum is closed on Mondays. It is also closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas holidays, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day. On other holidays, the regular opening hours from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. apply.
Accessibility: The exhibition rooms are accessible without barriers, except for the rum cellar. Seating and a loan wheelchair are available.
