   • PublicTransportFan. Birmingham 316 contributions. Peaceful and atmospheric. The ruins give you some idea of how massive this mediaeval monastery was. An information helps you to work out which bit was which.
   • Adrian C. 2 contributions. Greatest bridge. We came early so we didn’t have to skip the line. Totally worth the 6 hour drive from Denmark. Would have loved to spend more time on the bridge.
   • AthinaM_Al. Athens, Greece 301 contributions. Nice zoo! You don't expect a Berlin Tierpark-sized zoo in Greifswald, but this little thing is a nice surprise!
   • AlterSchwede13. Boblingen, Germany 1 585 contributions. nice place, not more. Nice old vessels, some good explanation, you can sit down and watch. But no specific need to go here.
