A lively attraction with a special experience and stay character

Just a stone's throw from the charming old town, the Northern Harbour Island awaits you - a newly designed former industrial area that proudly presents its rough, maritime past. Here, imposing warehouse buildings, the historic quay and the remains of the railway tracks merge with the modern architecture of the Ozeaneum to create a unique urban ensemble.

The open space concept deliberately emphasizes this exciting contrast and creates a spacious, car-free zone that invites you to stroll and linger. Stroll over historic large stone paving, discover lovingly placed details that emphasize the harbour character and enjoy breathtaking views of the glittering Strelasund from the inviting seating steps on the Hansakai.

An absolute highlight is the 200-metre-long flight of steps along the quayside. Here you can sit and relax, enjoy the fresh sea air and let your gaze wander across the water to the Island of Rügen. Another unique experience is the interactive play of light in the floor, which symbolizes a school of herring and reflects visitor movements and the current fish population in a fascinating way.

The Northern Harbour Island is constantly evolving and is already a lively meeting place for locals and visitors alike. Whether you want to enjoy the maritime atmosphere, admire the view or simply spend a relaxing moment by the water - the Northern Harbour Island is a must for every visitor to Stralsund!
