Located close to the German-Danish border, Flensburg is a small town with a rich history and many notable cultural landmarks. The city is the home to the largest Danish community in Germany, and its beer is renowned throughout the region. Det Lille Teater, the local Danish theater, is a great spot to get a sense of the local community.
The Old Town quarter in the center of the city features many well-preserved buildings and a scenic waterfront at the tip of the Flensburg Fjord. Some buildings are centuries-old mansions and manors converted into museums, like Museumsberg Flensburg, home to an extensive art collection. Braasch Rum Factory Museum offers a slightly different perspective on Flensburg, where you can learn all about rum-making, and yes, they have rum-tastings!
Because it is one of the northernmost cities in Germany, most ground travel from Germany to Denmark, Sweden, or Norway passes through Flensburg. For example, intercity bus service with FlixBus is an affordable way to reach nearby destinations like Hamburg or Copenhagen. Train service on the Deutsche Bahn network makes further destinations accessible from Flensburg.

Brunswick is a large city in Lower Saxony, whose prominence comes from its commerce and trade in medieval Germany. Today, it is a major center of scientific studies and research. If you enjoy wandering around while savoring the views, the Burgplatz is a great place to start. This central square of the city is surrounded by beautiful old buildings and several museums that pay homage to the city's medieval history. Don't miss the chance to snap a pic with the Brunswick Lion in this square. The lion is one of Brunswick's most prominent symbols, thanks to Henry the Lion, a medieval duke of Saxony and Bavaria. If history is a bit too stuffy for you, immerse yourself in the plant life at the Botanischer Garten der Technischen Universität Braunschweig.
Brunswick Palace is also worth a stop, even if it is only a 2007 recreation of the original 18th-century palace. You'll find the obligatory museum inside, but more surprisingly, the facade welcomes you into an enormous modern shopping mall. Anyone can be royalty for a day with the right accessories!
Train travel is hands-down one of the best ways to get around Germany. Brunswick is no exception, and Deutsche Bahn trains connect this destination to cities including Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt. Traveling by bus is often a cheaper alternative, though, and FlixBus runs frequent bus routes into Brunswick.
