Danish royal couple inspires Schleswig-Holstein: A visit full of highlights!

Kiel, Deutschland - NAG/NAG Redaktion-Schleswig-Holstein is preparing for a royal event! King Frederik X. and Queen Mary of Denmark visit Kiel on Tuesday, after their reception in Berlin.

But that's not all: the historic border wall Danewerk is also on the program, where the groundbreaking for a new construction project will take place. The highlight of the day will be a visit to the Danish minority in Flensburg, with a focus on the cross -border cooperation regarding renewable energies.

Prime Minister Günther is enthusiastic about the visit and emphasizes the close connection between Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark. "The royal couple visits us in the first year after the change of throne - that shows our strong relationships," he emphasizes. Gitte Hougaard-Werner, chair of the Südschleswig association (SSF), is also pleased and reminds that the Danish minority is historically closely connected to the Danish royal family.
