If you are into age-old architecture, then go here. Construction of St. Nicolas church started in 1290! The walls are towering. There are fascinating things to see inside and outside this place. Wonderful setting. The pictures speak to the worth-while outing to this 730 year old structure! I have several more photos...could only upload 10 here..

The first stop on our guided tour of Wismar was the Old Town market square. Here, our tour guide pointed out a number of features of historical interest located around the market square. Amongst them was the Alter Schwede, said to be the oldest house in Wismar. We found the unique and unusual exterior architecture of this building to be both appealing and fascinating. The building is certainly a good photographic subject for photographers and individuals with a keen interest in architecture. The old house is currently utilised as a restaurant. A “must-see” building for any tourist visiting Wismar!

Interesting building. Long ago they controlled the water supply for Wismar from here and in the end made a monument of it. Very nice!
