Some 306,000 tonnes of cargo passed through Flensburg in 2016, a figure that places this Baltic port among the busier harbours of Schleswig-Holstein while keeping its profile firmly regional. Bulk goods dominate, led historically by coal for the municipal power station on the fjord's west bank, handled at the Harniskai industrial quay alongside a working fishing harbour. Flensburg also remains a shipbuilding centre, home to a yard known for ferry and RoRo tonnage, but it operates no container terminal. Set at the head of the Flensburg Fjord, the port connects to Baltic routes towards Denmark, Sweden and the Baltic states, with road and rail carrying cargo into the northern German hinterland. Shippers needing container or broad liner services use nearby Kiel or Lübeck, which offer far wider connections. For regional bulk and project consignments, however, Flensburg provides established handling.
