Braasch

Top choice in Schleswig-Holstein


Some of the prettiest Kaufmannshöfe (merchants' courtyards) can be found off the very picturesque Rote Strasse, which is up from the harbour by the Rathaus. While here, you can buy rum in drinkable and edible forms at this lavish shop, which has a small museum. There's also a smaller shop further north.
