Rügen's Unmissable Highlights
Rügen features a diverse landscape dominated by the white chalk cliffs of Jasmund National Park and the ancient beech forests of the Stubnitz. Historical landmarks range from the massive Prora complex, a 4.5-kilometer-long Nazi-era resort, to the Slavic ramparts of Jaromarsburg at Cape Arkona. The island also showcases 19th-century architecture at Granitz Hunting Lodge and the iconic Sellin Pier. Natural viewpoints like the Königsstuhl and Victoria-Sicht provide expansive vistas of the Baltic Sea and the island's jagged coastline.
