The largest city in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern lies on the Baltic Sea. The Hanseatic city of Rostock is worth a visit not only because of its location by the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Rostock is an old Hanseatic city. This is still noticeable in the cityscape today. Merchants’ houses, imposing brick churches and the natural harbour shaped by the Warnow River define the cityscape. It is worth discovering the old town and taking an excursion boat to the Baltic seaside resort of Warnem\u00fcnde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Warnem\u00fcnde lies at the mouth of the Warnow into the Baltic Sea. Here, the white sandy beaches attract visitors from all over the world every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are standing in Rostock at the offshoot of the \"Strandlinie\" to Warnem\u00fcnde. It is only 9 o'clock and actually we had hoped to be able to go with the ship to Warnem\u00fcnde\u2026 but we are too early, much too early. So, what now? Wait? Postpone the trip? Or\u2026?<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Boat trip Warnem\u00fcnde to Rostock →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \"Will you come with me to Warnem\u00fcnde? There in the morning - back in the evening?\" So I got on the bus with a group of good-humoured amateur photographers and set off for the Baltic Sea.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Warnem\u00fcnde →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> m standing on a viewing platform on a cliff overlooking the River Eo, which forms the border between Galicia and Asturias here. On the Galician side is the small coastal town of Ribadeo, which I will visit for a short city walk.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Rostock Old Town →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> Towering high above the surrounding buildings in Rostock's old town is St. Mary's Church. From the outside, the church looks massive and almost like a fortress, what would we expect inside?<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n St. Mary's Church →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> The Holy Cross Monastery in Rostock is an important historical site in northern Germany with a long history. Walking along the ramparts, you can discover the site and find some beautiful quiet places for a break.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Holy Cross Monastery →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> The museum ship Dresden in Rostock is an impressive relic of Germany's maritime history. The ship was built in 1956 and initially served as a transport ship for trade. After many years in active service, the ship was finally decommissioned.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Museum ship Dresden →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> Caf\u00e9s, pubs and restaurants in Rostock - we tried out quite a few on a weekend in Rostock. Whether ice cream, hot chocolate, beer or fish sandwiches, the food in Rostock has always tasted good to us.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Food in Rostock →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>
