Demmin, Medieval Hanseatic city in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany.

The town stands at the meeting point of three rivers - Peene, Tollense, and Trebel - featuring the 95-meter-tall St Bartholomaei Church tower.

During the Middle Ages, Demmin served as a crucial stronghold of West Slav Circipanes before becoming part of Pomerania under Polish administration.

The St Bartholomaei Church, first mentioned in 1260, represents the religious heritage with its tower ranking as the second highest in Western Pomerania.

The town connects to major transportation routes through federal highways B110 and B194, with direct rail service between Stralsund and Berlin.

The Pomeranian Castle, documented in 1140, remains the oldest non-religious structure in Pomerania and housed the regional dukes until 1264.
