The Danevirke Museum is entirely dedicated to Northern Europe's largest archaeological earth monument, the Danewerk. In the museum, you will learn all about the history of the Danewerk from its beginnings in the Migration Period to the time of the German-Danish Wars. The Danewerk was a massive border fortification consisting of ramparts, walls, and ditches – many traces of the rampart system are still recognizable in the landscape today. Since 2018, the Danewerk, along with the important Viking trading center of Haithabu, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Note: The Danevirke Museum is currently being completely rebuilt with a new exhibition and new outdoor facilities. The opening is planned for spring 2027. Construction work is also taking place in the Archaeological Park Dannewerk until the end of September 2026 to offer visitors an even better experience.

More information and opening hours can be found at danevirkemuseum.de/de

Gottorf Castle

Highlight • Castle

A beautiful castle not to be missed. A visit is highly recommended. Even as a child I was particularly fascinated by the bog bodies and the Nydam boat.
Gottorf Castle, this magnificent white building at the entrance to Schleswig from the 15th century, was once the residence of the Gottorf dukes. They made Schleswig the cultural center of Northern Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries.

The Schleswig Museum Island offers an exciting excursion into the history of Schleswig-Holstein, overwhelming archaeological treasures and works of art. One of the highlights is the castle itself, which now houses the Museum of Archeology and the Museum of Art and Cultural History.

Schleswig City Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

In the Schleswig City Museum there are always interesting exhibitions on various topics. The locations for the exhibits are also rare, as the museum presents its collections in the hall, the former granary and the former stable of Günderothschen Hof.

Erik Stone of Haithabu

Highlight • Monument

The rune stones of Haithabu are valuable historical documents whose meaning lies in the fact that the early history of southern Denmark from the time before and after the Danish unification can be linked to real events. The purpose of rune stones is to convey to posterity the memory of important men. The erection of such memorial stones is therefore limited to a social circle. The four rune stones referring to the city of Haithabu are exhibited in the Viking Museum Haithabu and are divided into two groups, the "Sigtryggsteine" and the "Svensteine".
