The city also hosts the German House concert hall, a cultural center, and the University of Flensburg.
In addition to the Old Town, Flensburg also has a preserved row along the waterfront. Its three old town cores along the north-south axis were restored during Imperial times. The Second World War left the city virtually unscathed. The city opted for a policy of demolishing old buildings and replacing them with new ones in the same style. Fortunately, this policy has worked out well in Flensburg.
