Neubukow: Schliemann Commemoration and Nature Trail
Accommodation in Neubukow
Neubukow combines the memory of Heinrich Schliemann with a clearly defined nature experience. The Heinrich Schliemann Memorial commemorates the archaeologist, who was born in the town in 1822. On the “Hellbachtal” hiking trail, a four-kilometre nature discovery trail complements the cultural and historical perspective with time outdoors. These two distinct points of interest give your trip planning direction: you can focus your stay more on local history, the trail, or both. When looking for a holiday apartment, you can also first decide which experiences will matter most for your trip.

Schliemann Commemoration and Changing Exhibitions
The memorial commemorates Schliemann’s birth in Neubukow and connects this biographical link with changing special exhibitions. Their themes include archaeology as well as regional art and culture. Visitors will find a range of topics, from archaeology to art and culture from the region. The exhibitions change, adding new perspectives to each visit.
If you would like to explore the memorial or the town’s history with a guide, guided tours of the memorial and historical town tours are available by prior arrangement. This is important for planning: a guided tour is not simply part of a spontaneous stroll; it requires advance booking.
The Nature Discovery Trail in Hellbachtal
The nature discovery trail on the “Hellbachtal” hiking trail is four kilometres long. Its stated length makes it a clearly defined nature outing during your stay. You can make it a focus of your day alongside the memorial, or include both themes in your trip.
Neubukow therefore offers two distinct interests: the memory of an archaeologist born in the town, complemented by changing exhibitions, and a nature discovery trail with a specified length. Which of these appeals more to you may also influence your choice of a holiday apartment in Neubukow.
In the wider Rostock destination
The wider Rostock destination also offers a range of landscape and cultural themes. The Rostock region is bordered by 62 kilometres of Baltic Sea coastline, with a number of seaside resorts. The region’s hinterland also includes the river valleys of the Warnow and Recknitz. In Sternberger Seenland Nature Park, deep breakthrough valleys along the Warnow, numerous lakes, picturesque hills and extensive forests shape the landscape; the nature park is especially suited to hiking and cycling.
At Wildpark-MV, visitors can explore the park independently or join guided walks, including wolf, owl and evening walks. This offers different ways to discover the park: a self-guided stroll or a tour focused on a particular theme.
The Wolhynier Umsiedlermuseum in Linstow offers another perspective on cultural history. Tours for groups and individuals use ethnographic objects, photographs and documents to tell the story of the Volhynian Germans, from the mid-19th century to their resettlement in Mecklenburg after the Second World War. The historic Molli narrow-gauge railway is also part of the wider Rostock destination. It runs between Kühlungsborn and Bad Doberan and is the oldest narrow-gauge railway on the Baltic coast.
