Stralsund: Stralsund Promenade - Nordmole
Stralsund occupies the mainland shore of the Strelasund, the narrow Baltic sound separating Rügen from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Nordmole and the Stralsund Promenade form part of the city’s harbourfront, where working quays, a marina and waterside paths meet the open sound. Moored here, the Gorch Fock I is a three-masted barque launched in 1933 as a German naval training ship; today it is a museum ship and one of Stralsund’s defining maritime landmarks. The historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage site with Wismar since 2002, preserves the brick-Gothic character of the former Hanseatic city. Ferries and boats underline Stralsund’s enduring connection with the Baltic and nearby Rügen.

The Strelasund strait defines the setting of Stralsund — it separates the mainland from the island of Rügen and has long shaped the city’s harbour life and maritime outlook. A leading Hanseatic port in the Middle Ages, Stralsund retains an exceptionally coherent Brick Gothic centre, recognised with Wismar as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. St Nicholas’ Church, the grand Town Hall on Alter Markt and the harbour-side OZEANEUM trace different chapters of its civic and seafaring identity. The Rügen Bridge now provides a direct road and rail connection across the water to Germany’s largest island.

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.
