| Darss-Museum in the Baltic Sea resort Prerow |
 |
The Darss Museum was founded in 1953 and is
the heritage museum for the Fischland-Darss-Zingst
Peninsula. The geological formations
thrown up during the post Ice Age development of the peninsula and the divisions between
the Bodden waters all tell a story. Important finds from digs carry information about the prehistoric and early settlement of the area. The vegetation charts, numerous plants, illustrations and selected exhibits give visitors a good reference to the flora and fauna of the peninsula. |
| The fishery
section and especially the history of the Darss sailing ships are full of information
about the local people. There are also many heritage exhibits, navigational instruments,
ship’s journals, old seafaring books and much more, all given to the Museum by old
seafaring people. A visit to this carefully kept exhibition in the museum is worthwhile at any time of the year. |
