Putbus - Putbus

Putbus, the White City, is a city on the island to reprimand. As a planned city in the classical style with numerous palace-like buildings, it has retained a peculiar charm despite being neglected during the GDR era. The large castle park with fallow deer and numerous botanically valuable trees is well worth seeing. Due to the Second World War, the castle was neglected and later demolished.

background

Putbus is the youngest town on the island of Rügen and, with the Lauterbach district, the oldest seaside resort on the island and in Pomerania. The city has been a state-approved resort since 1997. The city was founded in 1810 by Wilhelm Malte I, Prince of Putbus. He had his hometown expanded as a planned city in the classical style so that the city ensemble fit in with the palace and park. The city complex is still largely preserved today. The name derives from the white painted houses of the Rügen prince's residence White city here. But Putbus will too Rose city called because Malte I. linked the purchase of the houses with the obligation to always plant rose bushes in front of the houses, which is still accepted today.
