book "Fotografische Zeitreise - Rügen", Volume 2 (A Journey through Time in Photographs)
After the first volume "Guts- und Herrenhäuser auf der Insel Rügen" was well received by people interested in the local history of Rügen and was also well received by guests and lovers of the island of Rügen as a special kind of travel guide, the second part has now been published.
The island of Rügen is known to many visitors from their own experiences, from travel catalogues and illustrated books. But apart from the natural beauties such as the chalk cliffs, the white beaches and beech forests and the famous sights such as the Baltic seaside resorts with their bathing architecture, the lighthouses at Cape Arkona, the Raging Roland and the natural stage in Ralswiek, to name just a few, the island has other interesting sides apart from these tourist attractions. These include manor houses and manor houses, which existed in almost all the towns of Rügen.
These witnesses of the past, often small and inconspicuous, but sometimes also stately and respectable, were for many generations the residence of the families who once cultivated and shaped the land.
Some houses have been revived in their old beauty, others are dawning a better future in their Sleeping Beauty sleep, others have already disappeared from the map.
You can find these places in the book:
