The UNESCO World Heritage and Hanseatic City of Wismar still testifies today of its almost 300-year-old occupation by the Swedes. The historic Old Town has one of the most preserved medieval city centres in the whole of northern Germany.

Among other things, the "old Swede", Wismar's oldest civic house, the Historical Museum "Schabbel Haus", the Linden Garden and the town hall rebuilt in neoclassical style are worth a visit. The late Gothic churches of St. Georgen and St. Mary with the adjoining archdeaconate are impressive testimonies of brick architecture.

In Wismar there is also the popular and well signposted adventure Pool WONNEMAR and a small zoo.
