“Because there’s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean
refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how
times it’s sent away.”
– Sarah Kay
Binz is known and famous for its very well-preserved spa architecture. This term describes the diversity and multitude of buildings created due to the seaside resort life at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. At this time, interested parties from all over Germany purchased land in Binz and commissioned their local architects to build hotels and guesthouses.
The desire to “go back to nature” influenced people’s lifestyles and architecture. This resulted in houses with bay windows, turrets, and balconies that were artfully decorated with carved ornaments and rosettes and playful Art Nouveau elements.
The Binz spa architecture combines Mediterranean flair with Nordic clarity and still reflects the charm of the turn of the century today.
April and May are a perfect time of year to explore Rügen. It is not overcrowded and the charm of the island can fully unfold.
