Sellin, Coastal resort town in Rügen Island, Germany

The white wooden pier of Sellin extends 394 meters into the Baltic Sea, connecting the beach promenade with swimming areas and recreational facilities.

Sellin transformed from a small fishing settlement into a prominent Baltic Sea resort during the late 19th century with the construction of numerous Victorian-era villas.

The restored beach promenade features a collection of white wooden mansions built in the specific architectural style of Baltic Sea resorts from the 1900s.

The resort offers direct beach access, multiple restaurants, accommodations, and a dedicated train station connecting to major cities through the Rügen narrow-gauge railway.

A cliff elevator system transports visitors between the elevated town center and the beachfront, providing an efficient connection between different elevation levels.
