The Convent of the Holy Cross (“Kloster zum Heiligen Kreuz”) is a former Cistercian convent founded by Queen Margarethe of Denmark in 1270. It was built in several phases in the 14th and 15th centuries. Since the 1980s it has been used as a cultural history museum (“Kulturhistorisches Museum”).

Standing 54 metres high, the Kröpeliner Tor is the tallest of Rostock’s numerous city gates. It was built in the 13th and 14th centuries as part of the medieval defences. The four gables with blind arches in front of the intersecting roof with a ridge turret still characterise the appearance today.

Built between 1953 and 1958, Lange Straße in Rostock is the largest contiguous urban development to have been realised in the north of the former German Democratic Republic. Following Stalinallee in Berlin and alongside Dresden’s Altmarkt, the ensemble is one of the most representative building projects of that time. The row of arcades is part of a design that incorporates not only traditionalist forms and materials into the facades but also stylistic elements of Brick Gothic.
