Car rental in Neumünster

Unlike the UK where you drive on the left, German traffic rules dictate that you drive on the right side of the road. It's a minor adjustment, but an important one to keep in mind while driving in Neumünster.

Holstenhallen

Neumünster is famous for the Holstenhallen, an event complex that regularly hosts trade fairs, concerts, and one of Europe's largest horse auctions. Easily accessible by car, it's worth a visit if an event coincides with your trip.

Neumünster Zoo

If you're travelling with the family, make sure you stop at the Neumünster Zoo. It's home to over 700 animals and offers free parking.

Local Cuisine

While in Neumünster, don't miss the opportunity to try local delicacies like 'Labskaus' and 'Pannfisch'. You'll find plenty of traditional restaurants around the city centre, each offering a different take on these regional dishes.

Car Class and Route Recommendations

Compact cars are ideal for navigating Neumünster's reasonably small city centre, but if you plan on exploring the beautiful countryside of Schleswig-Holstein, a larger, more comfortable car might suit you better. An attractive route is the drive from Neumünster to the Baltic Sea - a relaxing trip that brings you to some stunning northern beaches.

Parking and Mobility

Parking in Neumünster is straightforward. Most establishments provide parking facilities, and there are numerous public parking lots throughout the city. Remember, like in the UK, parking rules are enforced, so always check signage to avoid fines.

Climate and Clothing

Neumünster's climate is moderate, so always carry a mix of light and warm clothing. Winters can be bitter, so pack accordingly if you're visiting during this season.
