Illustration of Rostock

Railtour Suisse operates this 2-day city escape to Rostock, Germany's principal harbour city in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. You travel by 2nd-class rail from Switzerland and stay one night in a 4-star hotel in the city centre. Rostock is a lively destination with medieval streets and maritime heritage. The Old Market Square sits at the heart of the city, ringed by historic brick buildings including the impressive Town Hall, a masterpiece of brick Gothic design. The Rolandbrunnen fountain marks the city's significance as a former Hanseatic merchant port. Beyond the old town, the rose garden offers a quiet retreat, while the Shipbuilding and Maritime Museum traces the region's long connection to the sea. The trip suits history lovers and those seeking a short, affordable break without extensive daily walking or activities.
