Where to stay in Friedheim
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Friedheim is a sleeping quarter, not a sightseeing one. A room here stands among houses with the Christuskirche as the nearest fixed point, which suits travellers content to ride or drive into Flensburg for the museums and the evening. Flensburg keeps the hotels; Friedheim the houses.
Anyone who finds nothing near the St. Ansgarkirche does better in the middle of the city, where the supply is gathered.

About Friedheim
What are the main landmarks in Friedheim?
Friedheim's roster of sights is two parish churches long. The Christuskirche is one, and the St. Ansgarkirche the other, which is the whole of what Friedheim puts forward in a city whose museums and older monuments stand in other quarters. No third dedication follows.
Visitors with a sightseeing day cross into Flensburg proper, and the quarter keeps its two churches for the streets that surround them.
What is the history of Friedheim?
The two churches are the datable fabric. Friedheim carries no founding year, no charter and no first mention in the record, so what can be said of its age comes from the Christuskirche and from the St. Ansgarkirche rather than from paperwork under the quarter's own name. Flensburg holds the older story. Engelsby and Waldeshöh are entered on the same terms, as divisions of a city in Germany and nothing further.
Where is Friedheim?
The roll of Flensburg quarters places Friedheim beside Engelsby and Waldeshöh, all of them parts of one city in Germany rather than separate settlements.
