The pier features a curved design intentionally diverging from the traditional straight-line construction of Baltic piers.
The structure includes multiple seating lounges and observation decks integrated directly into the walking path.
Lighting embedded within the pier handrails provides subtle illumination for safe pedestrian movement at night.
The pier's length of 305 meters allows visitors to extend their walk significantly beyond the shoreline into the sea.
The architectural layout is specifically designed to facilitate events and public gatherings along the boardwalk.
The Seebrücke Kellenhusen is a 305-meter-long curved pier extending into the Baltic Sea, characterized by its distinctive, sweeping architectural design. It features three large, circular platforms integrated into the boardwalk, providing dedicated spaces for seating and observation. The structure is constructed from high-quality wood and steel, illuminated by integrated lighting for evening visibility. It serves as an accessible extension of the Kellenhusen beach promenade, connecting the town directly to open water. The pier is specifically engineered to provide panoramic views of the coastline and the surrounding forest-backed beach. It is a prominent feature of the Kellenhusen coastline, distinct from the neighboring piers in the Lübeck Bay region.
The outermost circular viewing platform provides the best panoramic view back toward the beach and forest.
Carry a light windproof jacket, as the temperature on the pier is noticeably lower than on the beach.
Visit during a clear evening to see the synchronized LED lighting illuminate the entire length of the boardwalk.
Walk to the very end of the pier for an unobstructed view of the Kellenhusen forest belt from the sea.
Do not attempt to jump from the pier into the water, as the seabed depth and currents are variable.
Maintain a clear path for pedestrians; cycling and skating on the pier are generally prohibited to ensure safety.
