The Sundian Meadows, also known as the Sundische Wiese (Sund Meadows), form the eastern part of the Zingst peninsula in the Vorpommern-Rügen district. The name derives from the "Stralsund Meadows," as the area once belonged to the catchment area of the city of Stralsund. The Sundian Meadows are an important nature reserve within the Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft National Park, located on the Zingst peninsula on the German Baltic coast. These vast, wet meadows extend east of the town of Zingst and are among the most valuable and species-rich areas within the national park.
