Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Administrative state in northeastern Germany with the Baltic Sea coastline.
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is a state in the northeast with a long Baltic Sea coastline. It borders Schleswig-Holstein, Lower Saxony, Brandenburg and Poland and shares maritime boundaries with Denmark and Sweden.
The state came together in 1945 from several historical regions and was dissolved in 1952. It returned during reunification in 1990 as a restored administrative unit.
The region draws summer visitors to its open-air concerts and sailing festivals held in harbor towns along the coast. Red-brick Gothic buildings from the Hanseatic period remain a distinctive feature in many older quarters.
The capital Schwerin and the larger city Rostock function as central hubs for administration and transport connections. Railway lines and motorways link coastal towns with interior areas and neighboring states.
The lakeland district in the interior forms the largest connected waterway system in Central Europe with hundreds of linked lakes and rivers. Travelers can navigate these routes by boat for weeks without retracing the same shoreline.
