Heritage Sites in Prora
This collection highlights the architectural and archaeological heritage of Rügen's coast, centered on the Colossus of Prora. Built between 1936 and 1939 as a Nazi 'Strength through Joy' (KdF) resort, the 4.5-kilometer complex remains one of the world's largest examples of National Socialist architecture. The list covers various surviving blocks and the ruins of the planned seaside promenade. In contrast to these modern remains, the site also includes the Großsteingrab Sieben Brüder, a series of ancient megalithic burial mounds dating back to the Neolithic period.
