The most valuable and oldest building in Warnemünde is the Bailiwick. It was once a royal Danish palace (1250), a princely bailiwick, a manor house, the seat of the Swedish and French bailiffs and the seat of the city bailiff (1605).
The Bailiwick has always been a hospitable house with a brewery and tavern.
Today it is the seat of the Tourist Office and Tourist Information.
You can also get married in the Warnemünde Bailiwick. The many love locks directly opposite the Bailiwick clearly show how popular weddings are in the seaside resort.View Location
The house "Am Strom 53" housed the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch in 1907/08. He lived with the pilot Nielsen and his family. Edvard Munch is well known for his expressionist masterpiece The Scream. During his time in Warnemünde, Munch experienced an artistic crisis. He was plagued by depression and sought rest to find himself.
The simple fisherman's house was listed as a historic monument in 1990 and has been owned by the Edvard-Munch-Haus e.V. Warnemünde since 1994. As a cultural meeting place, it now shows changing exhibitions of modern art.View Location
Alexandrinenstraße is one of the very first streets in Warnemünde along with the street "Am Strom". It used to be called the Achtereeg, which means back row in High German. Fishermen, sailors and pilots lived here in small gabled houses, which mostly consisted of simple half-timbering. Only a small distance was kept between the houses – the so-called Tüschen are at most 1.5 m wide. Just wide enough for a pregnant cow to pass through.View Location
Heimatmuseum Warnemunde(Pass By)
Alexandrinenstr. 31, Warnemunde, Germany, 18119The local history museum founded in Warnemünde in 1914 gives an insight into the life of seafarers, fishermen and pilots and shows the development of the bathing industry in the coastal town. The exhibition can be seen in an old Warnemünde house that was built in the 18th century and expanded in the 19th century.View LocationAlter Strom(Pass By)
Warnemunde, Germany, 18119The Alter Strom is worth a visit at any time of the year. Fishing cutters, passenger ships, large yachts and small sailing boats, but also the sea rescue cruiser are moored here.
The houses that used to be the "Vörreeg" now house cafés, pubs, ice cream parlors and many small shops. On the other bank of the river, on the middle pier, you can find the old ferry port, the railway station and the marinas.View LocationWarnemunde Church(Pass By)
Kirchenstr. 1, Warnemunde, Germany, 18119In Warnemünde, the church has stood in the middle of the town for over a hundred years. It is a place of rest and devotion for the community and for many guests. But it has also provided protection against flooding. The special votive ships inside show the maritime flair.
Since Warnemünde has rapidly developed into an important cruise port, more and more tourists from all over the world have come to the church. Guided tours and a variety of church music events take place almost every day, especially during the season.
The neo-Gothic church in the center of the seaside resort was built between 1866 and 1871. Valuable furnishings: carved altar (1475), the Renaissance pulpit (1591) and the statue of Saint Christopher.View LocationThe lakeside promenade is lined with picturesque neoclassical villas. A large number of hotels have been built here in the style of resort architecture. The Hotel Hübner is one of the oldest hotels on the promenade. It was built in 1852 as a residential and bathing house by the shipowner Friedrich Gustav Hübner from Rostock.
Two other impressive buildings on the promenade are the Heinkel Villa and the Weather Service Villa. The house at Seestraße 15 is the so-called "Heinkel Villa". This house was built in 1880 and acquired in 1930 by the aircraft engineer Ernst Heinkel. Today the "Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde" is located here. The weather service building is on the right-hand side of the Heinkel villa. You can already tell by the measuring devices on the roof and in the dunes. This "weather house" was once the former summer residence of the well-known Rostock schnapps manufacturer Conrad Lehment, from whom the double caraway specialty "Mann un Fru" comes.View Location
Warnemunde Lighthouse(Pass By)
Am Leuchtturm, , Warnemunde, Germany, 18111You can see the lighthouse from almost anywhere in Warnemünde. He has also become the landmark of the small seaside resort. The lighthouse was built in 1897/98 from white glazed bricks and is 30.60 m high. The galleries of the tower invite you to a wonderful panoramic view of Warnemünde, the Baltic Sea, the beach and the harbor entrance. Thanks to dedicated hobby lighthouse keepers from Warnemünde, the lighthouse shines in all its glory and invites many guests to visit. At the foot of the lighthouse is Warnemünde's famous "Teepott", a round building with an idiosyncratic roof (1967/68) as well as cafés and restaurants.
In addition, a plaque at the old pilot station, the "last house before Denmark", keeps the memory of the great storm surge of 1872 alive. The moles, built to protect against the mighty forces of nature, line the harbor entrance.View LocationMeeting and Pickup
