Berlin (Rostock)

Rostock is the largest city in the north German state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It stretches for about 20 kilometres along the Warnow River to the Baltic Sea. The seaside part of Rostock, Rostock-Warnemünde, is about 16 km to the north of the historic city centre.

One of the most picturesque places in Rostock is the Neuer Markt (New Market Square), with the Town Hall. The square also preserved six original, beautifully restored, gable houses from the 15th and 16th centuries. Some parts of the medieval city wall, with four city gates, have survived to the present day.
