Redentin Concrete Ship

Highlight • Monument

From here you have a good view of the concrete ship, which was built from a lack of steel during World War II. It stranded a short time later and has been (almost) in the same place since then.

The crossing to the island is at the narrowest point around a small bridge. In this area, the road is surrounded on both sides by water.

March 18, 2025,Von Wismar zur Insel Poel

Today, with a cool 5 degrees Celsius but glorious sunshine, we headed to the island of Poel.

Delicious fish sandwiches at the harbor smokehouse 😋 highly recommended! With 7 degrees Celsius, we returned to the beautiful city of Wismar feeling refreshed.

The beautiful and quiet Easter days on the island of Poel are over and I'm going home again. Since I didn't have to deal with headwinds like on the outward journey, this bike tour was child's play. Even at the end of my tour I caught a train to take me home in a timely manner. Sometimes everything just runs …

Over Easter I spend the time on Poel with dear relatives without a laptop or WiFi. Of course I could come by bus, but I found it more appealing to take the bike. I already know the route because i.a. This is where the Baltic Coast Cycle Route runs, which I rode in autumn 2020. In a few places roots …

There I immediately noticed the boxes for …

August 16, 2025,Ein Tag in Wismar und Abendbrot auf Insel Poel 🏘️🌊🌾🐚

We spent our last day of vacation in Wismar. We explored the city on foot and then drove to the island of Poel.
The city of Wismar is incredibly beautiful, and its churches, St. Nikolai, St. Marien, and St. Georgen, are very impressive. I couldn't label all the photos of the churches due to the sheer number, but I didn't …
