Information for your visit

Schleswig's Museum Island is a complex of buildings that has grown over the centuries. We are working on extensively modernising and expanding Gottorf Castle, which is located in the centre. 

One of the first steps is the renovation of the only lift from 17 February 2025 until probably 4 April 2025. During this time, the exhibitions in the castle can therefore only be reached by using the stairs. 

If you have any questions about restrictions in advance of your visit, please call our service team or send us an email.
