Aside from impressive landscapes, Rügen has a long history of inhabitants. Humans have settled and left traces of their existence here as far back as the Stone Ages.
The Stone Age tombs of Rügen are as old as Stonehenge. Shadily boulevards lead to villages and small towns. The town of Putbus is an example of pure, unadulterated neo-classical architecture.
2300 archaeological monuments, 1200 architectural monuments and 110 natural monuments - a testament to the long and fascinating history of the island of Rügen.
