Already in the 19th century Usedom was a popular summer holiday destination because of its fine sandy beaches, forests, small lakes and quiet lagoon landscape. Both the wealthy bourgeoisie and the nobility enjoyed life in the seaside resorts of Ahlbeck, Heringsdorf and Bansin. Even today, the numerous houses in the classicist style of "spa architecture" still exude a touch of this sophisticated atmosphere of days gone by. Where once the Mann brothers, Gorky and Tolstoy walked, today's excursion takes you past impressive Wilhelminian villas, the unmistakable turret-crowned pier of Ahlbeck and the longest pier on the Baltic Sea in Heringsdorf. The pier with the restaurant pavilion is the unmistakable landmark of Ahlbeck and a popular backdrop in film and television.
Take the opportunity to join an island tour of Rügen. You will visit the famous Baltic resort of Binz and be impressed by its 19th century spa architecture.
