Expert Tip. The Gorch Fock I, a three- masted barque and now a museum, was originally built as a training ship for the German Navy in 1933. She was seized by the Soviet Union following World War II, eventually making her way to Stralsund after the Soviet collapse. The ship is 500 metres from the hotel and the German Oceanographic Museum is 1.5 kilometres away.
