About location

The Warnow defines the setting of Warnemünde — its broad estuary creates a major Baltic shipping approach and separates the historic resort on the western bank from Hohe Düne to the east. Warnemünde is a district of Rostock, shaped by its evolution from a fishing settlement into a seaside resort and the maritime entrance to one of Germany’s leading Baltic ports. Warnemünde Lighthouse, built in 1897, remains a local landmark near the river mouth. The waterway connects the port of Rostock with the Baltic Sea, bringing ferry, cargo and passenger traffic through a landscape where beaches, quays and navigation infrastructure meet.

Oldendorf
City Oldendorf

Oldendorf lies along the Bekau in western Schleswig-Holstein, where open Holstein farmland and low, water-managed terrain extend towards the Stör valley. The village belongs to the Steinburg district and stands northwest of Itzehoe, in a region shaped by small settlements, cultivated fields and drainage channels rather than dense urban development. St. Martin’s Church is a local landmark, reflecting Oldendorf’s long-standing role as a rural parish community. The Bekau ultimately joins the Stör, which flows on to the Elbe, linking this quiet locality to northern Germany’s wider river network.

Schleswig-Holstein
Region Schleswig-Holstein

Schleswig-Holstein blends maritime openness with rural calm in a way that reflects its position between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. Germany’s northernmost state borders Denmark and stretches across low farmland, marshes, sandy shores and islands. The Kiel Canal crosses the region, linking the North Sea at Brunsbüttel with the Baltic near Kiel. On the west coast, the tidal flats of the Wadden Sea form part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Lübeck’s historic centre, shaped by the Hanseatic League and Brick Gothic architecture, adds an important urban counterpoint.

Country Germany

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
