Today's main building of the University of Rostock essentially consists of two parts. The southern wing, the New Museum, was built in 1844 as a "museum for the University of Rostock". On the site of the old university, the White College, the central building and the right wing were built between 1867 and 1870.

Used as a car park for many years, since 2000 the Neuer Markt has been what it was for centuries: Rostock's central market square in front of the town hall. There is also a weekly market here - Tuesday to Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Until its destruction in 1942, the New Market was surrounded on all sides by magnificent gabled houses from four centuries. Only six houses on the west side retained their original appearance. The Renaissance house no. 16 is particularly striking with its decorative elements on the gable stairs and the lion on the building. "Gaff heads" look down on passers-by. House no. 12 contains features from various styles. It is fascinating with its rich sculptural decoration and the small turrets on the gable. Used as a car park for many years, since 2000 the New Market has once again become what it was for centuries: Rostock's central market square in front of the town hall. The Seagull Fountain on the New Market was created in 2001 by the well-known Worpswede sculptor Waldemar Otto. Four ancient bronze sea gods are grouped around a column with a seagull: Neptune with a trident, Nereus, Triton blowing on a conch shell and Protheus, the walking one. On the north side of the New Market stands the town hall with its seven turrets, directly opposite begins Kröpeliner Straße, the main shopping street of the Hanseatic city. The New Market and Kröpeliner Straße are reserved for pedestrians. Source: https://www.ostsee.de/rostock/neuermarkt.html

Parts of the fountain have been stolen several times.

This is of course only the main university building

The University of Rostock was founded in 1419, making it one of the oldest universities in Germany and the oldest university in the Baltic Sea region. In the 2016/17 winter semester, 13,864 students were enrolled, including many Erasmus and other international students. A total of 327 professors and 2,900 employees (including 689 in university medicine) were directly employed by the university in 2016. The majority of the more than 100 courses in ten faculties are offered with master's and bachelor's degrees.

Fantastic cycle path with equally great views of the rural hills. A bit of uphill and downhill over smooth tarmac. I also met some racing cyclists.

The University of Rostock was founded in 1419 and is therefore one of the oldest universities in Germany and the oldest university in the Baltic Sea region.
