What are the main landmarks in Gaarden-Süd und Kronsburg?
The Kiel Transmission Tower rises over the district and can be picked out from well beyond its boundary, while St Markuskirche keeps a parish church among the streets of Gaarden-Süd. A tower, a church, no third. Kronsburg adds housing rather than monuments, and the older churches and squares of Kiel stand in Gaarden and the quarters nearer the centre.
What is the history of Gaarden-Süd und Kronsburg?
Two names sit in one district. Gaarden-Süd und Kronsburg were brought together as a single unit on Kiel's district map, and the pairing still carries both names through the records of Schleswig-Holstein. No founding year is recorded for either.
St Markuskirche marks the parish inside Gaarden-Süd, and the Kiel Transmission Tower stands on ground the district had room to give.
Where is Gaarden-Süd und Kronsburg?
Six square kilometres of Kiel carry Gaarden-Süd und Kronsburg, bounded by Neumeimersdorf, Hassee, Südfriedhof and Gaarden.
