Ahrenshoop, Administrative division on Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula, Germany
The municipality of Ahrenshoop extends along the Baltic Sea coast in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, featuring long stretches of sandy beaches and coastal landscapes.
In 1591, officials established a boundary through Ahrenshoop that divided Mecklenburg from Pomerania, which remains visible today as the Grenzweg road.
The establishment of an artist colony in 1889 by Paul Müller-Kaempff and Oskar Frenzel transformed this former fishing village into a center for creative expression.
Modern Ahrenshoop operates under the administrative jurisdiction of Vorpommern-Rügen district, maintaining essential municipal services for its residents and visitors.
The division of Ahrenshoop required travelers to pay taxes when crossing between its eastern and western sections until Mecklenburg-Schwerin joined the German Zollverein in 1868.
