Sellin Pier, pier in Sellin, Germany
Sellin Pier is a wooden structure extending about 1,300 feet (400 meters) into the sea from the beach. It features a restaurant with ocean views, shops, and a viewing area where visitors can walk and observe the surrounding waters and landscape.
The pier was built in 1913 during the rise of seaside tourism along the Baltic coast. It has survived destruction from wartime damage and storms, with major renovations undertaken to restore it to its current state.
Walking on the pier is free year-round, though access can be restricted in poor weather or rough seas. Visits are best during calm conditions when the full length is safely accessible and views are clearest.
The restaurant at the end of the pier specializes in locally caught fish and seafood prepared in traditional ways. It attracts both locals and visitors who want to taste authentic regional food while overlooking the sea.
