About Wolgast, Germany

Wolgast is a historic town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on the Baltic coast, situated on the Peenestrom strait facing the island of Usedom. As a medieval Pomeranian ducal residence from 1285 to 1637 and part of the Swedish Empire until 1815, the town retains a collection of historic buildings and a picturesque harbour.
