Arnis (ⓘ, Danish: Arnæs) is a small town in the district of Schleswig-Flensburg, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It is part of the Amt Kappeln-Land. It was founded in 1667 by shipping families from the nearby village Kappeln who wanted to avoid a peonage. The local Skipper's Church was erected in 1673. At a population of c. 300 and a total area of 0.45 km2, Arnis is the smallest town in Germany both by population and by area.[2]
