Welcome to the Hanseatic Town of Stralsund

The three soaring spires of Stralsund’s medieval Old Town are visible from far and wide, giving its skyline the unmistakable profile the town is known and loved for. Whenever they came in sight, a safe port and profitable deals were not far off. Today too, the historical centre of Stralsund, recognized UNESCO World Heritage site in 2002, extends its wide welcome to its exited visitors and happy holidaymakers. Affectionately restored townhouses, imposing brick churches and a large number of valuable remains of the Hansa era are altogether creating the unique charm of our town. Being located directly on the coastline of Mecklenburg Western Pomerania complements the city’s great cultural offer and results in a unique maritime experience.
