The historic ship Vorpommern is one of the maritime highlights of the Hanseatic city of Greifswald on the Mecklenburg-Western Pomeranian Baltic Sea coast. Built in 1950 as a fishing cutter, the schooner is 17.6 meters long and 5.6 meters wide, has a total sail area of 150 m², and is moored in the Greifswald Museum Harbor. The ship is operated by Sozialwerk Vorpommern e.V.
From fishing cutter to Baltic Sea schooner – the ship’s history
Originally built as a fishing cutter, the ship was converted into a schooner in 1996 and subsequently put back into service. Since then, it has accommodated up to ten people in two rustic cabins with berths—an authentic experience on the water that evokes the region’s long tradition of fishing and seafaring.
Baltic Sea cruises and fishing trips from Greifswald
During the summer months, the traditional ship Vorpommern offers cruises throughout the Baltic Sea region—passing coastal areas such as Rügen, Fischland-Darß-Zingst, and the island of Usedom. In addition to classic sailing trips, the program also includes fishing trips that offer a special connection to nature and the waters of Vorpommern.
Other attractions in Greifswald
Caspar David Friedrich Center
● Greifswald
The Caspar-David-Friedrich-Zentrum, opened in 2004 in the historic Seifensiederei and expanded in 2011 to include the entire former residential and commercial building of the Friedrich family, commemorates the great painter and greatest son of the city of Greifswald. It is also a museum, documentation and research center. Caspar David Friedrich was born here on September 5, 1774. Visitors can see his father's old soap-making workshop, the family cabinet with the family tree, the Rügen and Eldena rooms with famous motifs from Friedrich's work and the Caspar David Friedrich Gallery. The tour offers comprehensive information on Friedrich's origins, career and creative style as well as on the history of the Friedrich family and their home and business premises, which is also the subject of a long-term research project by the Caspar David Friedrich Society. Changing exhibitions of contemporary art in the Caspar David Friedrich Gallery bear witness to the enduring fascination and impact of Friedrich's work and historical Romanticism. Thanks to its location in the heart of Greifswald's old town, the center is a particularly attractive destination for anyone who wants to follow in the artist's footsteps in his hometown. In the immediate vicinity is St. Nikolai Cathedral, where Caspar David Friedrich was baptized, and it is only a few minutes' walk to the Pomeranian State Museum with its original Friedrich paintings.
