Bridge Over the Alte Eider Near Eiderhufe

Highlight • Bridge

The Eider, Schleswig-Holstein's longest river, sometimes narrow and idyllic or wide as a waterway (NOK). The Eider is crossed by several ferries and bridges: "Lucky for the hiker!" 😃👍😜

Gut Sehestedt

Highlight • Historical Site

The spacious courtyard of the Sehestedt estate still dominates the image of the town on the north side. The estate stands on the site of an old moated castle and was surrounded by a moat until 1865.
A wide path, the dam, leads from the country road across the estate to the manor house built in 1728. Barns, a carriage house and a cottage on the north-western edge of the farmyard characterize the townscape with their picturesque arrangement.
The three barns are a connected row of thatched half-timbered buildings. In contrast to the other buildings of the farm, they still exist in their original form.
For the decimated total inventory of the estate, which has been documented since the 13th century, they still give a vivid idea of the old, former complex, which is now characterized by changes and modernization. The barn, a three-post half-timbered building with a longitudinal passage and subsequent central cross access, was built in 1807 (the interior was rebuilt in 1990/92). The carriage house with rows of large gates on the courtyard side and the cottage date from the same period. As important examples of Schleswig-Holstein estate architecture, the three buildings were listed as historical monuments in September 1996.
The farm complex is still used by the Ahlmann family as an agricultural operation. In 1997, the "Alte Meierei" was rebuilt and now offers space for eight families.

Sehestedt Village

Highlight • Settlement

Very attractive town - it invites you to linger. A church with a balcony-like cemetery over the canal. The ferry shuttles free of charge.

Kiel Canal at Sehestedt

Highlight (Segment) • River

Ships crossing the canal can be up to 235 meters long. In addition, the diving depth must not be more than 9.5 meters. The Kiel Canal is the man-made shipping route that is one of the busiest in the world. It connects the North Sea with the Baltic Sea. That's why there is always something to see for onlookers at this point.
