Richtenberg is located near the Baltic Sea coast of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and is surrounded by picturesque landscapes. The town itself is characterised by its historic old town from the 13th century, which is surrounded by a well-preserved town wall.

One of the most important sights is Richtenberg Castle, an impressive Baroque building with a large park and ponds. The town church of St. Marien is also worth a visit: it dates back to the 14th century and houses beautiful works of art such as the winged altar by the painter Philipp Otto Runge.

Culture enthusiasts should not miss the annual cultural festival - an event full of music and theatre performances as well as exhibitions by local artists.

In terms of cuisine, Richtenberg also has a lot to offer: Be sure to try fish dishes straight from the harbour or regional specialities such as kale with pinkel or labskaus.

If it is raining outside, you can, for example, take a look at the local history museum or go swimming in the indoor swimming pool. A visit to the cinema or theatre is also a good option.

The surroundings of Richtenberg are ideal for numerous outdoor activities: In summer, you can relax on the nearby beach or take bicycle tours through the idyllic landscape. In autumn and winter, it is worth hiking along the surrounding trails and enjoying the autumnal play of colours in nature.

Whether you want to experience cultural highlights, seek culinary delights or simply want to be active in nature - Richtenberg is definitely worth a trip!
