The German town of Travemunde is located in Lubeck and lies at the mouth of the River Trave in Lubeck Bay. Founded in the 12th century by Henry the Lion, Duke of Saxony, when he built a fortress to guard the mouth of the River Trave, the town was later improved by the Danes and became a town in 1317. The town is now the largest ferry port in Germany on the Baltic Sea and since the early 19th century it has been a popular tourist resort. Popular attractions in the town include its lighthouse which dates back to 1539 and is the oldest along the German Baltic Sea coast. Another is the museum ship, the Flying P-Liner Passat, which is anchored in the mouth of the River Trave. Motorised vehicles are prohibited from using the town's main street, Vorderreihe, and the coastal promenade. There are buses that run to the town and the connection point is the train station. Riding a bike or walking is usually preferable as most of the streets are narrow and often get congested with cars driven by inexperienced drivers.
Ferry services from the port depart to Sweden, Finland, Russia, Latvia and Estonia.
The Swedish town and port of Karlshamn lies on the Baltic Sea coast and is a charming little town with an interesting history and a lovely archipelago on its doorstep. The area around the town changes from the many lovely islands and beauty spots located along the coast to the lush forests found further inland. There are many things to see and do in and around the town. For a bit of peace and tranquillity, head out to the archipelago and take in the stunning scenery. If you enjoy fishing the town has some of the best salmon fishing in the world, or you could go on a wildlife safari, explore and experiment with science, walk or cycle along the river Mörrum or enjoy the party atmosphere at one of the largest and liveliest town festivals in Sweden. If, however, you are looking for something a little more cosy then why not explore the town itself and take in its many shops and cafes.
There are regular ferry services from Karlshamn to Kiel in Germany, Klaipeda in Lithuania and St. Petersburg in Russia.
