This first meeting of G7 Foreign Ministers under Germany’s G7 Presidency will take place at Schlossgut Weissenhaus in Schleswig-Holstein from 12 to 14 May. The stately home, which is more than 400 years old, and its listed park offer a venue in natural surroundings ideal for a meeting with short distances in an informal atmosphere. The Federal Foreign Office would like to thank the owner and operators of Weissenhaus, the State Chancellery of Schleswig-Holstein, the Schleswig-Holstein police force, the district commissioner of Ostholstein as well as the mayor of Wangels for their cooperation in preparing and organising this German G7 Presidency event.
