Vitt shore chapel

Vitt shore chapel

Vitt / Rügen

The octagonal shore chapel on the high bank of Vitt. The Altenkirchen poet priest Gotthard Ludwig Kosegarten initiated the construction of the shore chapel. Construction of the chapel began in 1806 according to plans by the Pomeranian master builder Rühs. Construction was interrupted by the Napoleonic Wars and the shore chapel was not completed and consecrated until 1816. The chapel is a simple octagonal building. The vestibule with the sacristy was added as early as 1852. The pulpit altar, designed in a Romanesque and eclectic style, was only added to the chapel in 1882. Above the altar is a copy of the painting "The Sinking Peter" (Mt 14, 22-33) by Philipp Otto Runge (1777-1818) made by the Stralsund painter Erich Kliefert. The painting was commissioned by Kosegarten in 1805 as an altarpiece for his former pupil in Wolgast. In 1990, the mural "People in the Storm" was executed by the Italian artist Gabriele Mucchi (1899-2002), one of the most important representatives of Italian realism. Just a ten-minute walk away, ecumenical waterside services are held on the last Sunday of every month at 3 pm in summer.

Vitter Strand

Vitter Strand

Vitt

One of the most romantic places on the island of Rügen is the little village of Vitt. It lies tucked away in a coastal gorge along the cliffs. From Vitter Strand, there is a magnificent view all the way to Cape Arkona. Vitt has been known for centuries for the “shore sermons” delivered by Pastor Gottfried Ludwig Kosegarten, which he gave to the fishermen on the cliffs of Vitt. In his honor, construction of the Vitt Chapel began in 1806—reportedly based on plans by Karl Friedrich Schinkel—and it can still be visited today and is used for weddings. The wonderfully picturesque landscape in the north of the island of Rügen can be explored to the fullest on long walks along Vitter Beach with a view of Cape Arkona.

Despite later alterations from the 16th through the 19th centuries, the medieval architectural form is still clearly recognizable.

former Latin school

former Latin school

Stralsund

A two-story brick building that served as the sexton’s house and Latin school at St. Nikolai. Toward the middle of the 14th century, this narrow, elongated, two-story brick building was constructed southeast of St. Nicholas Church as part of the churchyard boundary. It served as a sexton’s house, but also as a Latin school at St. Nicholas. It is the most significant surviving example of this type of school building on the Baltic Sea, where the sons of merchants acquired basic skills for trade. The valuable medieval structure was carefully restored during the renovation in 1994–95. The narrow northern side, with its pilaster gable, is particularly worth noting.
