Picnic Shelter by the Baltic Sea

Highlight • Rest Area

You pass right by here on the bike path. The coast is flat here, so you are sitting almost directly on the water and only need a few steps to get to it. There are bike racks. It's bound to be busy in summer.

This area is characterized by a coastal forest and the adjacent cliff that slopes up to 20 meters to the Baltic Sea.

Warnemünde Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

The so-called Teepott is a landmark in Warnemünde. Ulrich Müther, a civil engineer from the island of Rügen, designed the striking building with the curved roof. In the tea pot you will find restaurants and souvenir shops.

Right next to it is the almost 40 meter high lighthouse, another landmark of the Baltic Sea resort. It was put into operation in 1898. The lighthouse in Warnemünde is shown on the poster for the film "Shutter Island" with Leonardo Dicaprio - but nothing more. Because the Hollywood film was not shot on the Baltic Sea.

From Easter to the beginning of October the tower is open to visitors daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Admission is 2 euros.
