Gohren: Göhren Pier
Göhren sits on the Baltic Sea coast of Rügen’s Mönchgut peninsula in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, where sandy beaches meet low wooded slopes and dune vegetation. Göhren Pier is a focal point of the resort’s seafront and a landing place for excursion boats, extending the town’s connection with the surrounding Baltic coast. The resort spreads between the Nordstrand and Südstrand, two beaches separated by the elevated headland known as the Nordperd. Inland, Göhren is the eastern terminus of the Rügensche Bäderbahn, the historic narrow-gauge railway popularly called Rasender Roland. Its beach promenades, wooded edges and rail link give this small Baltic resort a character distinct from Rügen’s larger towns.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is best known within Germany for its Baltic Sea coastline, including the islands of Rügen and Usedom. Its northern edge meets the Baltic, while the interior is marked by lakes, lowland forests and farmland; Lake Müritz is Germany’s largest lake lying entirely within the country. The white chalk cliffs of Jasmund National Park on Rügen are among the state’s defining coastal formations. Stralsund and Wismar retain historic Hanseatic town centres, both inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Ports, seaside resorts and lake districts give the region a distinctly northern character.

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.
