    In the oldest German seaside resort of Heiligendamm there is a pier that leads 200 meters into the Baltic Sea. The draft at the end of the pier is only suitable for mooring smaller ships. Due to its location, it is excellent for watching beautiful sunsets. Or you can enjoy the beautiful panorama that the sea and its coast offer in peace and quiet.

    Inland you have a good overview of the neo-classical work of art that was created between 1793 and 1870 and consists of lodging, bathing and community buildings near the beach that have not yet been renovated, as well as the Grand Hotel Heiligendamm and the Heiligendamm Clinic, which opened in spring 2003.

        The bridge protrudes a few hundred meters into the Baltic Sea and offers a good view of the sea and the mainland.

              Fishing enthusiasts can fish in the Baltic Sea all year round from the Heiligendamm pier. From October to May, there are no limits to the fishing fun. From May 1st to September 30th, fishing from the pier is only permitted in the early morning and evening hours (9 p.m. - 8 a.m.) due to the bathing and water sports season.

                    you should definitely go to the pier to enjoy the view of the white city by the sea from the sea. Danger! When the sea is rough, pay attention to the wet spots on the pier. Sometimes the waves are high.

                      Here you have the best view of what is called a string of pearls. But as a private individual you can no longer get in there. Everything cordoned off. Which is particularly stupid because the E9 and the Baltic Sea cycle path now run across private property.

                            The pier was built in 1993.
                            It is 200 m long.
                            Numerous events take place here, such as the first swim, torchlight swims or fireworks. The pier then offers a fantastic backdrop.

                                Heiligendamm (Low German: Hilligendamm) is a district of Bad Doberan on the Baltic coast of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in the Bay of Mecklenburg. Heiligendamm is the oldest seaside resort in Germany and continental Europe, having been founded in 1793. The town is also called the "White City by the Sea" because of the row of white houses near the beach that can be seen from the sea. In 2004, Heiligendamm was recognized as a seaside health resort. The town gained international fame through the G8 summit in Heiligendamm in June 2007.

                                  The Molli narrow-gauge railway runs through Heiligendamm from Kühlungsborn to Bad Doberan. The line between Bad Doberan and Heiligendamm was built in 1886. The Evangelical Forest Church was renovated after the political change, and the Catholic Sacred Heart Chapel was still in an unrenovated state in 2010, both inside and out. The pews were stolen in 2001. Heiligendamm also has a pier that leads 200 meters out onto the Baltic Sea.

                                    The pier is a welcome invitation to extend your walk along the beach over the Baltic Sea. Directly on the sea, you are surrounded by the pure, salty Baltic Sea breeze and in the hot summer months the fresh breeze offers a pleasant cooling effect.

                                      The bridge itself is only suitable as a mooring point for smaller ships, as the water depth at the end of the bridge is rather shallow. Depending on the weather, you can watch motor and sailing yachts within sight and imagine yourself on board and traveling with them. With the help of the coin-operated telescope, you might even see really big ships passing by or lying in the roadstead at a slightly greater distance.

                                      If visibility is ideal, you will discover Kühlungsborn to the west and in the other direction you can follow the coastline to Nienhagen.

                                        Heiligendamm has a long history of piers. The oldest seaside resort on the Baltic coast had short jetties when it was founded in 1793. At that time, it was only used for the yacht of Grand Duke Friedrich Franz I. However, the wooden structures often did not withstand the forces of nature such as storm surges or ice drift for long. The current bridge, which extends 200 meters into the Baltic Sea, dates from the anniversary year of 1993.

                                        The pier is extremely popular and attractive for numerous events all year round: whether it is a traditional first swim, a torch-lit swim or a brilliant fireworks display - the backdrop is unique.

                                        And when the sun appears to disappear into the sea on the horizon in the evening hours and bathes the sky in atmospheric red tones, you can experience particularly romantic moments on the bridge.

                                            It's the most expensive private property currently on offer in Germany—naturally in need of renovation—at €40 million. Below, this long bridge leads over the "sacred dam." Here, it's artificially constructed, of course.
