(Translated by Google) The lighthouse itself is beautiful. But otherwise you can "only" walk here. You cannot climb it. (Original) Der Leuchtturm selbst ist schön. Aber ansonsten kann man hier "nur" spazieren. Besteigen kann man ihn nicht.

Upon arriving at Leuchtturm Kiel-Holtenau, I was immediately struck by its imposing stature. The lighthouse stands tall, proudly overlooking the Kiel Canal, acting as a beacon of guidance for ships navigating through these treacherous waters. Its distinctive red and white exterior, complemented by a well-maintained surrounding area, creates a picturesque sight that evokes a sense of awe. Have a walk there and enjoy 😍

This is a beautiful tower next to the baltic sea with a beautiful view. You can sit on the benches and bask in the sun while watching people fish or take a walk along the sea. You also able to watch people sail or cruises.

There are few benches facing the harbour where you can sit and relax. Bring something to drink and enjoy the ships passing by or just the nice weather. There are some cafes nearby.

A good place to walk and spend some nice time. Plenty of restaurants around in the vicinity. A decent connection to the public transport. Some nice views of lighthouse and the sea/kanal.

Cute little lighthouse

Historical place and nice to see the action on the fjord (especially during Kiel Week)

A nice place for a short visit. I used my city bicycle from decathlon to visit the place. The journey was awesome, fantastic scenery is there, the over bridge is really awesome. Peacful place, for food and drinks small joints are there and lot of people visit the place. Many enthusiasts use the boats to go the sea, some are having their yachts. Overall the experience for me was really good, I never knew that Holtenau is so near to my place and really beautiful.

When you are in Kiel... Nice place to go for Coffee, Cake and fresh fish.

Peaceful place with a few benches, parking spots, and restraunt on the side.

Nice place to enjoy the view and a nice restaurant too. Definitely worth the visit

It’s a nice spot on the Baltic Sea to relax and enjoy the view with the lighthouse in the background. Recommended for a walk and nice scenery :-)

Maritimes Highlight

The corner stone of this tower was laid by Kaiser Wilhelm 1 in 1887. Not much to see as it is closed for the public. Still worthwhile visiting as it is over a century old and had in the older days a vital function. Nearby are plenty of restaurants, cafees where you can enjoy a huge variety of differents breakfasts, dinner or super. The height of this tower is twenty metres.

A nice bike ride from Kiel center, going over the Holtenau bridge to then reach the lighthouse. I was sad to find the door closed, but the lighthouse is quite unique and worth visiting, even if only from the outside!

Nice place to visit, there are beautiful sea view and coffee shops and a lot of people enjoying fishing there.

Stunning views across the estuary...

Nice view. Good place to bring kids. A historical building. Unfortunately you can not go inside.

The port was very beautiful and attractive, with cruise ships memorable. I invite you to the beautiful and spectacular island of Kish in the Persian Gulf.

fantastic

Beautiful !

Historically important building in Kiel. Beautiful place to get married.

A small old lighthouse with a nice view of the water and lots of greenery around

I couldn’t read any of the signs. Everything was in some weird forreign language. If I’m going on vacation, I don’t want to have to read in Japanese!😡

One of my favorite places around the Kieler Förde. If you can visit this area, enjoy the view over the water and traditional sailing ships usually berthing here, and feel the welcoming atmosphere. You can get on harbor boat trips from here on weekends. Note that the lighthouse can not be entered usually.
