Bockwindmühle Eldena

Highlight • Monument

The Eldena log windmill welcomes travelers from Greifswald from afar. In 1998 the new building of one of the oldest windmills on the Baltic coast was inaugurated. It has only recently been given new wings and sails and is now shining with a red cloth. The wheels inside, which turn, driven solely by the wind, are impressive.
In the future there will also be regular guided tours.
A visit is always worthwhile and if you meet the miller while visiting, you can be lucky and listen to exciting stories about this beautiful mill and maybe even take a look inside.

In the evening when the weather is nice you should take the bridge to sit on the shore and have a good time with the available offers;)

The Ferryman

Highlight • Monument

The ferryman is a seated sculpture and part of the sculpture trail in Wieck. The sculpture is both a great photo opportunity with the historic bascule bridge in the background and a nice bench from which you can easily observe the hustle and bustle.

Wieck Hand-operated Drawbridge

Highlight • Bridge

This bascule bridge leads over the Ryck River and connects the two Greifswald districts of Eldena and Wieck. It was inaugurated in 1887 and is now one of the oldest still existing and functioning wooden bascule bridges. You can rightly call it a landmark of Greifswald or Wieck. The residents of the Eldena side do not like to hear it at all when Wieck is always mentioned, although Eldena should also be mentioned.

Fun fact: several times a year there are motorists who ignore the bollard signs, want to drive quickly afterwards and wreck their car. The bollard is just very stable. :)
