Even if you have limited mobility, you can get to this region and experience it: There are plenty of disabled parking spaces that make it easier to drive here. The public transport system also has buses with lowered entrances and a lot of raised bus stops. We have more helpful tips for you here – but we have to be honest with you: the cobblestones in some of Flensburg’s very pretty old town alleys are very challenging!

Notes for people who are hard of seeing

There are vibration buttons and acoustic signals at many traffic lights in Flensburg’s city centre. These make it easier for people who are hard of seeing to cross the street safely.

A guiding line for blind people runs through Flensburg's pedestrian zone from Südermarkt to Nordermarkt: This is a line you can feel which has warning markings so that people who are hard of seeing can move around independently.

Lines you can touch and warning markings already make it easier at many bus stops to find your way to the boarding point. There are more and more tactile indications installed on the bus stops too.
