Uetersen has a long history and is known for its impressive 18th century architecture as well as for Uetersen Castle, which once served as the residence of the Counts of Rantzau. Today it houses a museum that gives visitors an insight into the region's past.

Another highlight is the rose garden at the castle, where more than 5000 rose bushes cover an area of more than two hectares. Here you can take a wonderful walk and enjoy the scent and sight of these magnificent flowers.

For cultural highlights, the annual cultural weekend "Kunst:Offen" (Art:Open), where local artists present their works, or the city festival with live music and culinary specialities attracts numerous visitors every year.

For those who like to be active, there are many possibilities here, such as cycling along the Elbe cycle path or hiking in the nearby Klövensteen forest. Water sports enthusiasts also get their money's worth here - be it sailing on the Elbe or stand-up paddling on Lake Großer Brook.

And if the weather doesn't cooperate? Then a visit to the HolstenTherme leisure pool with sauna facilities or to the Uetersen Museum, which gives an insight into the history of the town, is recommended.

Culinary Uetersen has a lot to offer - from regional specialities such as matjes and kale to international cuisine. The numerous farm shops in the area are particularly recommendable, where you can buy fresh produce directly from the producer.

Overall, Uetersen is definitely worth a visit and offers something for every taste. Whether cultural highlights, active outdoor activities or culinary delights - everyone gets their money's worth here!
