Kappeln

About Kappeln

Kappeln sits on the Schlei, a narrow coastal inlet in Schleswig-Holstein, northern Germany, close to the Danish border. With roughly 8,700 residents, it was historically an important centre for herring fishing, a heritage still visible in the town today. Notable points of interest include the Netzausleger Nieby, the Genforeningssten — a memorial stone reflecting the region's shared German-Danish history — and the Monument over Faldne Danske Søfolk, commemorating fallen Danish sailors. The nearby Heidberg and the surrounding Amt Geltinger Bucht add natural variety to a visit to this small but characterful fjord town.
