The Pomeranian State Museum in Greifswald is a cultural centerpiece of the region and offers a fascinating insight into the history, art and culture of Pomerania.
The modernized building complex, which also includes the former Franciscan monastery, combines historical architecture with a contemporary exhibition presentation. Visitors can expect an impressive permanent exhibition that tells the eventful history of Pomerania from early times to the present day - supplemented by archaeological finds, historical objects and multimedia elements. The museum is particularly well known for its collection of important works by the painter Caspar David Friedrich, who was born in Greifswald. His landscapes and motifs are deeply rooted in the region and give the exhibition a special emotional depth. In addition, the monastery garden with its historical plants and herbs invites visitors to linger and gives an impression of monastic life in past centuries. With changing special exhibitions, events and educational programs, the Pomeranian State Museum is aimed at a wide audience - from school classes and tourists to those interested in culture from the region and beyond. A visit offers not only knowledge transfer, but also an atmospheric journey through the history and art of Pomerania.
