Koserow Pier, pier in Koserow, Germany
Koserow Pier is a wooden structure about 280 meters long that extends into the Baltic Sea with a curved, wave-like design. It features two large platforms with seating, LED lighting along the railings, and a bell tower at the entrance that houses a small bar in a converted vehicle.
The pier has been part of Koserow's seaside heritage for many years, serving as a gathering place for locals and visitors. When it was rebuilt and reopened in 2021, it was transformed into a modern landmark while maintaining the area's connection to its fishing and maritime past.
The pier connects to local stories about Vineta, a legendary city said to rise from the sea. A bell tower at the entrance rings on certain days, particularly Easter and Wednesdays, keeping these traditions alive and inviting visitors to reflect on the village's history of fishing and trade.
The pier is easily accessible from the village center on foot or by car and remains open year-round. Parking is available nearby, and signs guide visitors directly to the entrance, making it convenient to reach regardless of weather conditions.
A striking corten steel statue at the tower shows a man holding a bell and gazing toward the sea. His identity remains a mystery to visitors, as it is unclear whether he represents a fisherman or a figure from the Vineta legend, adding an artistic intrigue to the visit.
