Rostock was granted the town charter of Luebeck in 1218, and during the Hanseatic League, it became an important European trading hub.

What Is Rostock Best Known For?
Rostock was East Germany's largest and most strategic coastal and port city. Rostock is located on the Warnow River's estuary, which flows into the Baltic Sea's Mecklenburg Bay.
Rostock Culture
Kröpeliner Straße
Kulturhistorisches Museum Rostock
The Kloster zum Heiligen Kreuz was established in 1270 as a former Cistercian convent. It is home to the Rostock Cultural History Museum, which hosts both permanent and temporary exhibits. Archaeological discoveries, medieval and religious art, toys, furniture, coins, and documents from Rostock's past are on display at the museum. It is also possible to visit the monastery complex from the 14th and 15th centuries, which has been almost fully preserved. The Three Kings altar, which is housed in the ribbed vault, is a testament to medieval sculpture.
Neuer Markt Rostock
Each of Rostock's three former sub-towns had a market square with a town hall and a nearby church. The Neuer Markt, which is almost square and through which many streets, including Kröpeliner Straße, flow, is one of them. It rapidly grew to become the city's economic hub. The south side of the Neuer Markt was demolished in 1942 during the chaos of World War II. Just a few houses on the north and east sides, including the town hall, were spared. On the west side, a greater ensemble of buildings has been preserved.
Rostock Nature
Naturschutzgebiet Stoltera
The approximately 83-hectare Stoltera nature reserve, located directly adjacent to the Warnemünde seaside resort, faces west. It stretches for around 3 kilometres along the Baltic Sea coast. The coastal forest comes to a halt immediately on the Baltic Sea's cliff. Storms have influenced and changed the fascinating and varied coastal landscape in front of Warnemünde for centuries. The mountain, which was up to 20 meters high, was ripped apart by the waves. A walk along the coast to the Wilhelmshöhe viewpoint, where visitors can linger over a coffee and take in the spectacular view of the Baltic Sea, is especially popular with holidaymakers from the area. A diverse world tempts you to swim and go on excursions by foot or bicycle.
Strand Markgreifenheide
The Markgrafenheide, set in a picturesque maritime landscape, is a nudist hotspot as well as a textile bathing destination. The seaside resort is a Rostock district with a beach that extends to the southwest as far as Hohe Düne and is several kilometres long and up to 50 meters high. After about 9 kilometres in a north-easterly direction, the sandy beach with its flat shoreline zones merges into the beach in front of Graal-Müritz.
Rostock Night Life
Nightlife
If you want to have a good time in Rostock, you have a lot of options. There's something for everyone here, from rock to electro, classical to cult classics, small clubs to big discos. Musicians, singers, and night owls can find a variety of venues in the city and in Warnemünde's nightlife. People still enjoy partying outdoors, whether on the beach or at the city harbour. If you're still in Rostock, take a stroll along the quay edge from the shipyard triangle to the wood peninsula to see the common mile.
