The Kap Arkona lighthouse is the name given to two sea lights on the Baltic Sea in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. They are located at Kap Arkona on the Wittow peninsula at the northern tip of the island of Rügen. The Kap Arkona direction-finding tower is within sight. Both lighthouses were renovated in the early 1990s and are open to visitors. The old lighthouse now houses a museum with an exhibition on beacons and sea rescue, as well as an outpost of the registry office. Marriages celebrated here are immortalized by a small plaque in the ground in front of the tower. Each tower has an observation platform, from which you have an unobstructed view over Rügen and in particular the Wittow peninsula. On a clear weather you can see as far as the Danish island of Møn.

Cape Arkona Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

The path from the northern beach along the coast below the cape to the fishing village of Vitt is great and varied, especially for kids...and the smoked fish in Vitt is great. From there then above the cliffs to Cape Arkona and over the dirt roads back to the parking lot.

Gellort – Northernmost Point of Rügen

Highlight • Beach

From Gellort, the northernmost point of the island of Rügen, it is only about 70 kilometers to Sweden and just over 50 kilometers to the island of Mon (Denmark). If the visibility is good, the chalk cliffs of Mon can be seen from Gellort.
