Kiel Week 2025: Fascinating aerial photographs of the sailing highlights!

Kiel, Deutschland - A special kind of spectacle took place at the Kiel Fjord this week. The Kiel Week, which took place from June 21 to 29, 2025 for the 144th time, was once again shown by its best side. In bright sunshine and lively wind, sailing boats and windjammer frolicked on the water and made the event an unforgettable experience for visitors and locals.

Axel Heimken, photo boss of the Kiel Nachrichten, had the opportunity to look at the Kiel Week from a completely new perspective. In a Cessna of the Holtenau Air Sports Association, he flew over the sailor area in Schilksee and along the fjord on Sunday afternoon. He experienced a real adventure on his flight when the machine became a little shaky in the wind. A window could be opened to take breathtaking photos. The view was spectacular: Heimken discovered windjammer that lined up like a pearl necklace in the bright blue Baltic Sea. This view provided an incomparable overview of the action that the whole city captivated. According to KN online this was a real highlight of the flight.
