tour highlights

Holsten Gate

The Holstentor ( "Holstein Gate") is probably the most famous and most important preserved gate of the Late Middle Ages in Germany. It was built between 1464 and 1478 by the Lübeck Councilor Hinrich Helmstede in the course of a modernization of the fortifications at the Traveseite.

Holsten Gate

Marzipan of Lübeck

If you think of Lübeck, you almost always think of marzipan. Around the origin of the marzipan are the most varied stories. Most popular is this: Around 1407 raged in Lübeck a famine. There was no grain left. Then the Senate carried the bakers to make bread from the almonds stored in the stores.

Marzipan of Lübeck

Old Swede Wismar

The "Old Swede" was built around 1380. In the middle ages, there were living and business rooms on the ground floor, and storage floors arranged above.

Old Swede Wismar

Kühlungsborn

The numerous villas cooling gabs have individual faces. Here a tower, there a bay window, balconies in all conceivable forms. On the façades, decorative elements vie for the favor of the viewers.

Kühlungsborn

Lighthouse Warnemünde

You can see the lighthouse from almost everywhere in Warnemünde - and you can see almost everything in Warnemünde from about 30 m high. Built in 1897 as a sea mark, it not only helps ships on their way to the safe harbor, but also has become a further attraction of the Baltic Sea resort, thanks to a dedicated warning light hobby lighthouse keeper.

Lighthouse Warnemünde

Viermastbark

The sleek ship once belonged to the fleet of the famous Flying P-liner. It was built at Blohm & Voss in Hamburg for the transport of grain and salmon and cost 680,000 gold marks. On the Christmas Eve of 1911 the "Passat" for the shipping company Laeisz entered the first journey from Hamburg to Cape Horn to Chile. In favorable winds she sailed up to 18 knots quickly and so defied the emerging competition of steamship.

Viermastbark

Town Harbor Barth

In the 18th and 19th century, Barth experienced a flourishing period with the development of sailing ships. At times, there were several shipyards and shipping companies, all of whose ships were sailing all over the world.

The town harbor has been comprehensively redesigned since 1990. Dock, quay, port and promenade invite you to stroll.

Town Harbor Barth

Sea Museum NATUREUM

In the Baltic Sea Aquarium, currently the only marine aquarium within the national park Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft, one can admire more than 30 different kinds of fish and vertebrates live.

In the main building of the lighthouse farmhouse, where two Leuchtturmwärter families once lived, exhibitions of animals and plants have found their place in the natural environment of the Ostseeküste.

Natureum

St. Nicholas Church

The oldest of the three Stralsund parish churches is the monumental St. Nikolaikirche at the Alter Markt. It has been in the stage of a comprehensive restoration for years. Even now, with its two imposing organs, Buchholz and Schuke, it is one of the most beautiful sacral buildings in Northern Europe.

St. Nicolas Church

Town Hall Stralsund

The Stralsund town hall is one of the most beautiful profane buildings of the north German bakingsteintotics. The construction started in the 13th century. Because of its architectural features, the town hall was not only the seat of the council and the place of jurisprudence, but first of all a building full of business.
