Sights and cultural highlights in Wismar

Wismar is situated in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and is one of the most beautiful cities in northern Germany. Thanks to its historico-cultural buildings, the town is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. In front of the unique backdrop of the Hanseatic town, there are numerous opportunities to learn about its history. We especially recommend Wismar's town museum, the so-called SCHABBELL. >> learn more
