Natur Denkmal This little plaque denotes the ancient oak tree as a Natural Monument - it is situated at the Rosengarten (on Steinstrasse) and is protected from being felled during any city development. There is another plaque at the base of the tree which reads "Freedom Oak". |  | |
Plattdeutsche This wall plaque is inscribed in Plattdeutsch - Low German- and was indecipherable by my local guide! Any help in translation would be very welcome! Thanks to VT member Airpunk, I have been informed that the first line reads: "The new town needs many houses", We are still working on the second line!! | | |
Glockenspiel The Glockenspiel situated outside the cafe in University Square was, according to my local friend last heard played about 10 years ago. Apparently it is becoming increasingly difficult to find Glockenspielers nowadays! | | |

Great pages, Maria, you prepared me well for my trip to Rostock tomorrow. Happy travelling, Peter | Kathrin_E Sun May 3, 2009 00:20 UTC
Moin! I'd complete the second line of the Plattdeutsch to "Vel Hüsing brugt de nige Stadt, de Rat dorüm sin Sorgen hat" - "the city council thus have their worries". | starship Thu Nov 29, 2007 14:53 UTC
For the answer to the secret of the snake on the Rathaus column, please see my Rostock page! Info. on the engraved Holocaust memorial stones. | cachaseiro Fri Feb 16, 2007 10:18 UTC
