Arkona bunker and naval command bunker
📍 Putgarten
Dozens of ventilation pipes protrude from the ground in the immediate vicinity of the lighthouses. The history of the bunkers on Cape Arkona is a long one. It begins in 1915 with the construction of the first bunker, but it has not been renovated and is not open to the public for security reasons. The smaller bunker was built by the Wehrmacht and was converted into an office of the 6th Coastal Border Brigade during the GDR era. It is known as the "Arkona bunker". Today it houses documentation on the history of Cape Arkona, from Slavic times to the present day. Admission is free of charge. The larger bunker was built between 1979 and 1986. Starting from a main central corridor with two entrances, there are several independent individual bunkers with a total area of 2,000 square meters. It served as a command post for the 6th Flotilla of the People's Navy and the United Baltic Fleet (VOF) stationed on the bow. The bunkers served as a so-called "protected command post" and were intended to protect against toxic gases and radioactive radiation in the event of war. Today, the second large tube houses a model ship exhibition and old navigation equipment. The facility was decommissioned on the day of German reunification, October 3, 1990.
Castle rampart at Cape Arkona
📍 Putgarten
The "Jaromarsburg" is located at Cape Arkona, the northernmost point of the island of Rügen, and is reminiscent of the Slavic era. The long-known "Jaromarsburg" on the northern tip of the island of Rügen was the sacred place of worship of the Ranen, a West Slavic people. It was built as a temple sanctuary in honor of Svantevit, the main god of the Slavs on Rügen. From the 9th century until the fall of the castle in 1168, this last pagan bastion was the political and religious center of power on the island. The castle rampart, which is still 12 m high today, with its moat and the interior of the castle, has been exposed to the constantly advancing coastal erosion for decades, which is why numerous sondages, prospections and excavations have taken place since 1868.
