Hello and Moin! My name is Shahrukh and I live in Rostock. I do it mainly because I like meeting people. Guests come from all over, I show them a bit of Rostock, and I usually go home having learned something from them too. I don't think a city tour has to be a race through a checklist of sights. Sometimes the best part is sitting down somewhere and talking for a while about the city. What I like about Rostock is how calm it is. There's the Baltic Sea, the old buildings, the harbor and plenty of history, but mostly I like the easy pace of the city. It's a good place to take a break from a stressful everyday life. If you'd like to see Rostock at a relaxed pace, with a few stories along the way and a local showing you around, I'd be happy to take you.

History of Rostock
Overview of your Warnemunde tour
Rostock grew rich in the Hanseatic League, and its merchants showed their wealth in their churches. Built from red brick in the Gothic style, these churches still shape the city’s skyline and tell its story: medieval trade, the Reformation, wartime destruction, and life in the GDR. We visit St. Mary’s Church with its astronomical clock from 1472, still working today, and its bronze baptismal font from the 13th century. At St. Peter’s Church you can take the lift up the tower for a view over the old town and the Warnow. We see St. Nicholas, the city’s oldest church, which today has flats built into its roof, and the Monastery of the Holy Cross, founded by a Danish queen and now home to the university church and the city’s cultural history museum. We take the train and tram from Warnemünde, walk the old town at a relaxed pace, and leave time for questions and a coffee break.
