Experience the magic of GPS playback on this immersive stroll through Rostock's charming port town of Warnemünde. Trace the town's transformation from a Baltic fishing village to a seaside resort on this self-guided audio tour. 

Despite being one of Germany's busiest cruise ship ports, Warnemünde has retained its character and charm as an old fishing village with over 800 years of history.

On this walking tour, you'll discover traces of the medieval village, which once consisted of just two rows of houses. I'll point out the oldest house, Warnemünder Vogtei, which dates from 1605 but has foundations as old as 1300. I'll show you some very pretty corners that most visitors miss and quiet spots away from the tourist masses. Yet, if you enjoy shopping, there will be plenty of opportunities for that too. After a stroll through the village park, Kurpark, you'll arrive at Seepromenade (the seaside promenade) where you can marvel at the widest beach in Germany.

Sitting on its own Island, Schwerin Castle can be considered one of the most significant creations of the romantic historicism era in Europe. The castle houses living and ball rooms, including the throne room and ancestor gallery with their large collections of plastic and picturesque decorations.

The Schwerin castle cannot be overlooked. It is an eye-catcher no matter the angle. The castle rises monumental and majestic into the sky and despite its size with 635 separate rooms the castle seems light and graceful due to its incredible love for detail. Numerous windows, corners, columns, oriels, balustrades, golden ornaments and figures divide only add to its beauty.

On the floors, the museum exhibits include precious paintings, sculptures, and crafts mainly from Schwerin's most glamorous era, the 19th century.
