Wismar
Description
Wismar has all the hallmarks of an important Hansiatic trading port, which it was for many years until it fell under the control of Sweden. Consequently there is an odd mix of Germanic, Hansiatic and Scandinavian trends across the city. Badly damaged in World War II much of the city has been restored, but some of the port areas are still "functionally" rather than aesthetic
Charge
Getting There
There are hourly trains from Schwerin to Wismar taking around 40 minutes. If you just miss one you can catch the following Rostock train and change at Bad Kleinen where the Wismar train waits for the Rostock train. In the same way, you can get into Schwerin five minutes earlier on the return if you change trains in Bad Kleinen, but unless time is essential, and if you've got a seat, it's probably not worth it.
