Kiel in the Rain
Even in bad weather Kiel has plenty to offer. The GEOMAR Aquarium dives into the underwater world, the Maritime Museum tells the city's seafaring history, the Kunsthalle shows classical and modern art and submarine U-995 in Laboe is a dry adventure even in the rain. Plus cafes and hearty northern German cuisine.
Day 1
Museums, marine life and maritime history
Three indoor stops and cosy breaks: from the aquarium via the Maritime Museum to the Kunsthalle — a day that makes you forget the rain.
- 10:00 - 11:30
GEOMAR Aquarium
All the more an experience in the rain: the GEOMAR Aquarium on the Kiellinie shows the underwater world of the Baltic and the oceans. In the dry, you can watch fish, jellyfish and the seals through the glass.
- 11:45 - 13:00
Maritime Museum in the fish hall
The Maritime Museum in the historic fish hall at the harbour tells Kiel's seafaring history — from deep-sea fishing to the shipyards and the navy. Models, original boats and the stories of the sea city under one roof.
- 13:00 - 14:15
A northern German lunch in the city
Around the Old Market and Holstenstrasse there are cosy spots — warm, dry and serving northern German cuisine. Labskaus, fish soup or a hearty stew against the rainy weather.
- 14:30 - 16:00
Kunsthalle zu Kiel
The Kunsthalle zu Kiel shows painting from the 19th century to the present — with a focus on northern German and Expressionist art, plus changing special exhibitions. A quiet, sheltered afternoon for art lovers.
- 16:30 - 18:30
Submarine U-995 in Laboe
If you want to defy the weather, head to Laboe: submarine U-995 is a dry adventure inside even in the rain. The narrow steel tube of a Type VII boat brings naval history vividly to life.
- 19:00 - 21:00
A cosy evening in Mitte
To finish, a cosy spot in the city centre with warm light and hearty cuisine — from the house brewery to a traditional fish restaurant. The perfect comfort against grey clouds.
