Admannshagen-Bargeshagen offers specific points of interest for a stay: a cultural and community center, early mentions of the villages, historic buildings, and leisure activities. When planning, it helps to decide on your focus first: Would you like to include an event, make local history your theme, or plan active leisure? More excursion themes can be found in the wider Rostock destination; they complement the local profile as a distinct regional setting.
Cultural barn and the history of the districts
The Kulturscheune serves as the community’s cultural and civic center. Many events organized by the community’s clubs and groups take place there. If you are planning your stay around an event, check dates and visitor information in advance. This focus differs from planning based mainly on the area’s historical associations.
Bargeshagen was first mentioned in a document in August 1286. Admannshagen was first mentioned in writing on February 2, 1302, as “Adamshagen.” The two dates relate to different districts and records: Bargeshagen is documented in a charter, while Admannshagen’s first written mention is recorded under its historical name.
Buildings and listed monuments
A barn at Hauptstraße 55 in Bargeshagen served as a livestock barn for the Budde farm for many decades. In Admannshagen, a hall house at Querstraße 8 and a half-timbered barn at Poststraße 3 are listed monuments. A war memorial commemorating 1914–18 is part of the listed monuments in Mitteldorf, Admannshagen.
Leisure and cycle path
The Pandino children’s play world in Bargeshagen offers 3,200 square meters of activities, including go-kart tracks for children aged three and older and for adults, a climbing tower, and a ninja course. Its focus is active leisure, setting it apart from the area’s cultural and historical associations. If you are planning a visit, check current visitor information.
A cycle path between Bargeshagen and Admannshagen was opened on May 30. It adds a connection between the two districts to the local points of interest mentioned above. If you plan to include the path in a cycling tour, check its current condition in advance.
Rostock as a wider travel destination
In the wider Rostock destination, you can plan outings focused on nature. At Wildpark-MV, visitors can explore the park on their own or join guided walks, including wolf, owl, and evening walks. In Sternberger Seenland Nature Park, deeply cut breakthrough valleys along the Warnow, numerous lakes, picturesque hills, and extensive forests are especially inviting for hiking and cycling.
For a cultural and historical perspective in the wider Rostock destination, visit the Wolhynier Umsiedlermuseum in Linstow. Tours for groups and individuals use ethnographic objects, photographs, and documents to present the history of the Volhynian Germans from the mid-19th century until their settlement in Mecklenburg after the Second World War. Another theme connects history and transport: the historic Molli narrow-gauge railway runs between Kühlungsborn and Bad Doberan and is the oldest narrow-gauge railway on the Baltic coast. Its rare track gauge is 900 mm; since 1886, it has shaped the towns’ appearance along the Baltic coast.
For active leisure, the Kletter- und Erlebniswald Schwaan in the wider Rostock destination offers seven courses for children, beginners, and advanced climbers. The 116.5-meter-long Flying Fox zip line runs directly over the lake. As facilities may change after renovations, it is worth checking current information before your visit.
