Guided Story

In front of you stands a sculpture created in 1976 by Reinhard Dietrich. It honors the pilots who were essential to maritime navigation. These pilots guided ships through the harbor in all weather conditions. Look north, and you’ll notice the Warnemünde Lighthouse just 43 meters away. This lighthouse and the pilots worked together to guide ships safely. The proximity to the sea and harbor highlights the importance of this collaboration for Rostock.
