In the north of Rügen, the newly founded "Neuvorpommersch-Rügensche Verein zur Rettungsschiffbrüchiger" built its first rescue station in Putgarten in 1866 and then took over the existing Prussian stations in Glowe, Mukran and Göhren on Rügen as well as Kloster on Hiddensee and the one at Darßer Ort. The association joined the DGzRS in 1868. The old rescue shed in Putgarten still stands today at Dorfstraße 25a and serves as a vehicle hall for the Putgarten volunteer fire department.
