Binz–Prora Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

There are very good cycle paths on the island of Rügen and some should be ridden with caution.

Sassnitz Harbour

Highlight • Structure

The city harbor with the longest outer pier in Europe and the striking pedestrian suspension bridge that connects the city harbor with the city center is simply very beautiful. Even if there is no longer a ferry service here and fishing has also been greatly minimized, the port still has a very special flair. It is an attractive mix of fishing and tourism port, in the area of which there is also the fishing and port museum with the museum cutter "Havel". From the harbor you can of course go on tours with excursion boats and pleasure boats as well as deep-sea fishing.

A rest stop and snack bar on the way from Sassnitz to the Königsstuhl. A playground for the little ones and information boards about UNESCO natural heritage for the grown-ups.

Prora Complex

Highlight • Historical Site

Prora is a bit confusing for the first-time visitor. Here is a little orientation: The youth hostel is the northern start of the building. Shortly behind is the Prora Center Museum:
prora-zentrum.de
In the museum there is information about the history and also guided tours. This is followed by a section with unused parts of the building and partially used areas. A first block follows, which will be transformed into apartments. This ends the first building complex.
You are now in the middle, clearly recognizable by the one realized central wing with the blue, semi-circular building. Here is the documentation center Prora: proradok.de
There are also exhibitions and guided tours here. I personally found it very worth seeing (6 € entry).
From here it gets bizarre, now you come to the "New Prora" dust gives way to asphalt, wheels give way to Porsche Cayennes and BMW X5. This is crowned by the luxury hotel in the middle of the building.
Sound critical? Yes, but nevertheless it is precisely because of these contrasts that I can recommend a visit. With this orientation you can choose what you want to watch.

Prora Architectural Complex

Highlight • Monument

Meanwhile, the "Prora Documentation Center" of the New Culture Foundation provides political background information and shows the use of Prora from 1936 to the present day.
In 2008, the opening of a high ropes course was celebrated on the coastal forest area of the complex. In 2011, a long-planned youth hostel was completed in the northern part of the complex. With one exception, the Federal Agency for Real Estate has now sold all of the building blocks to private investors. Luxury apartments and a hotel are to be built here.

Prora Seaside Resort Complex

Highlight • Historical Site

A barracks-like colossus stretches for four kilometers along the bay of Prora. At Adolf Hitler's request, a huge seaside resort was to be built here, in the east of the island of Rügen.

Lake Schmachter

Highlight • Lake

And yet a beach holiday in Binz is much more than just enjoying the Baltic Sea with a view of the chalk cliffs.
