The Nikolaikirche Rostock (St. Nicholas Church) is one of the oldest hall churches in the Baltic Sea region and one of the most important brick Gothic buildings in the Hanseatic city. It was built as early as the 13th century and was the parish church of the former Rostock Neustadt. Particularly worth seeing are: The impressive brick Gothic style with the simple, light-flooded interior. The unusual use: After its destruction in World War II, the church was rebuilt in such a way that today there are apartments in the roof area – a rare solution in Europe.

Old Town Magazine: After the war, Karl Planeth volunteered to clear rubble, design, and maintain the area north and east of St. Peter's Church, especially the path below the city wall between Slüterstraße and Bagehl. For several years, the Association for the Promotion of the Eastern Old Town, together with the family members, has fought to have the newly constructed path named "Karl-Planeth-Weg." On November 5, 2010, the time finally came. The path along the city wall was given its name, "Karl-Planeth-Weg." At the same time, two memorial plaques were unveiled below the Slüter Monument and above the Gerberbruch. These explain who Karl Planeth was and why the path was named after him.

The city harbor on the banks of the Warnow with its museum and sailing harbor is a popular promenade with restaurants, shops and large warehouses. All cargo handling was concentrated here until the seaport opened in 1960. The best view of the city harbor can be seen from Kanonsberg near the Fischerbastion. This used to be a strategically important defense point for the harbor entrance. Three old cannons are a reminder of this. The wooden treadle crane from the 18th century and the bridge crane from the 1950s are testaments to the handling technology of days gone by. In summer you can take a leisurely stroll here and end the day in the restaurants and bars. In the evenings the city harbor is a popular meeting place for young and old.
