    Hiking

    The Flehte is considered the oldest artificial harbor within a city in Northern Europe and remains largely as it was designed over 700 years ago. Although renovation work in the 1980s has resulted in the Flehte being somewhat narrower, its significance for the city's history and its development into a prosperous trading center in the Middle Ages and the early modern period is still evident.

    Hiking

    Visitors to the old town immediately notice the centrally located harbor basin. It came into being when the city was founded at the end of the 13th century.
