Kiel is the capital of Schleswig-Holstein and a working harbour city on a 17-km fjord that opens onto the Baltic. The Kiel Canal, the world's busiest artificial waterway, reaches the sea through the Holtenau locks at the north of the city, and the Ostseekai, Norwegenkai and Schwedenkai terminals handle cruise ships and the daily Color Line and Stena Line ferries to Oslo and Gothenburg. Christian-Albrechts-Universität, founded in 1665, teaches more than 25,000 students on a campus along Olshausenstraße and the Westring, and GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research is among the leading marine science institutes in Europe. Naval shipbuilding at thyssenkrupp Marine Systems and the German Navy base at Kiel-Wik anchor the economy; Hamburg is about 95 km to the south.
