Understand

The Baltic Sea Coast has transformed into a popular holiday destination, drawing inspiration from the 19th century. This coastal region, particularly renowned for its extensive bathing beaches stretching between the island of Usedom and the city of Kiel, garnered popularity among the upper-class elite. The Baltic Sea spas on Rgen and Usedom, as well as the city of Khlungsborn, served as favored retreats for the nobility during the 19th century. Evidence of this can still be found in the opulent mansions built in the spa style of the turn-of-the-century. Apart from its beautiful beaches and seaside spas, the region is celebrated for its diverse coastline, characterized by both the bodden coast and the cliff coast. The area is also rich in natural wonders, with the Jasmund National Park on Rgen being recognized as a World Heritage site. In addition, the historic cities of Stralsund and Wismar, both Hanseatic towns, hold the distinction of being UNESCO World Heritage sites, showcasing their cultural significance.
