Wedding Sara & Hendrik

You can discover Emden by foot. A walk over the star-shaped city defence starting from the water tower along the canals and the wind mill Vrouw Johanna towards the rare all-directions water transport hub Kesselschleuse.

Of course, you can as well just sit in a boat touring over the Grachten, too: Canal boat tours. Most of the port of Emden is exclusively by water visible – a harbour boat trip is strongly recommended.

The latter starts at the end of the Ratsdelft. Close to where you can visit a set of historic ships: The lifeboat, lightship, the fishing lugger (all open for visits!).

If any time is left, spent some time in one of the museums: Landesmuseum for the regional and city’s history or Kunsthalle for a renowned collection of modern art (but check before who is displayed).
