    Travemünde Maritime

    Day of the Sea Rescuers in Travemünde

    Seenotrettungsstation Travemünde · Free entry

    The sea-rescue station opens its doors: see the boat “Erich Koschubs”, meet the volunteer crew and learn about their missions. Because the nationwide Day of the Sea Rescuers (26 July 2026) clashes with the finale of the Travemünder Woche, Travemünde celebrates separately in late August. Note: the 2026 date is not yet confirmed – likely late August (in 2025 it was 23 August). Please check seenotretter.de before visiting.
