Stargard Gate, located to the south of Neubrandenburg's Marienkirche , was first of the four medieval city gates that we have seen during our short stay within the old, medieval city walls. Built in first half of 14th century it is a very well preserved Brick Gothic gate system consisting 18 meters high front gate, 40 meters long kennel walls connecting it with 24 meters high main gate, and integrated into it half-timbered house that use to serve as a custom house. Two openings in the city walls on the both sides of the Stargard Gate were made in 1909 in order to facilitate pedestrian traffic. Both, main and front gate are richly decorated with plastered panels. Additionally, front gate is decorated with rosettes, gables and pinnacles, meanwhile, main gate's southern façade is decorated with nine figures of unclear meaning. Only knights in full armour and motley crowd of merchants, peasants, squires, craftsmen and monks was missing. That was the first time we've seen such a well preserved Medieval city gate, and still, there were three more to admire. Amazing place.

Nature is everywhere and always changing. Let it be spring, summer, fall or winter - the look, feel and smell of Prora‘s beech forest at the Prora DBU-Natural Heritage Site is never the same. The Naturerbe Zentrum Rügen is open for visitors to experience and explore nature throughout all the different seasons. The 1,250-metre-long treetop walk takes you through the forest canopy and is packed with information and adventure stations. The “Eagle’s Nest” viewing platform, 40 metres above the ground, provides a fantastic view over the Island of Rügen, the Kleiner Jasmunder Bodden and the Baltic Sea. The modern Environmental Education Centre with its exhibition called „Experiencing and Understanding Nature“ is filled with exciting activities and fun facts for the curious at heart. A variety of offers and hikes. Local experts offer an array of guided excursions through the forest. The NatureLab is a great place for children and youths to get hands-on experience.
You take a walk the forest! Then you can see the entire island from the top of this cool "building". And you have a lot of games you can do...and obviously some cool information!
