From here you have a great view over the Kiel fjord.
Kiel central station is the second largest station in Schleswig-Holstein and starting point for trips to Hamburg, Lübeck, Flensburg and Husum. It is located directly at Kieler Förde and a few meters away from the ferry pier to Göteborg and Oslo. The station is a railway terminus with a three-naved station hall. Between 1999 and 2006 was the station redesigned and modernized. The old emperor staircase in the eastern part of it was rebuilt, too.

Every hour a glockenspiel is playing in the 106 metre high tower, which is accessible by foot. The opera house is located in the direct neighbourhood. Today there is also a “new town hall” located in the Andreas-Gayk-Street 31.
