Package holiday to Stralsund

Stralsund is the gateway to the island of Rügen and one of the most magnificent Hanseatic cities on the Baltic Sea — since 2002, together with Wismar, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city is picturesque, located on an island between the Strelasund and several ponds, surrounded by water and characterized by a stunning brick Gothic silhouette.

The three monumental brick churches — St. Mary, St. Nicholas, and St. James — dominate the city and testify to the wealth of the Hanseatic period. St. Mary, with its 104-meter-high tower, was at times the tallest building in the world during the Middle Ages. From the tower platform, there is a breathtaking panoramic view over the old town, the Strelasund, and the island of Rügen.

The Ozeaneum is one of the most modern marine museums in Europe and was awarded European Museum of the Year 2010. In huge aquariums, visitors dive into the underwater world of the Baltic Sea, North Sea, and Atlantic — the largest tank holds 2.6 million liters. The penguin enclosure on the roof offers a quirky contrast to the brick panorama of the old town.

The town hall at the Old Market with its magnificent Gothic façade is one of the most significant secular buildings of northern German brick Gothic. The perforated façade with its rosettes and blind arcades is a stone masterpiece. Directly opposite stands St. Nicholas Church with its opulent interior, which is among the richest furnishings of northern German churches.

Via the Rügen Bridge (4,100 m, one of the longest bridges in Germany), you can reach Germany's largest island in just a few minutes.

Stralsund particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
