Greifswald? Vorpommern?
The city of Greifswald is located in the far North-East of Germany at the coast of the Baltic Sea and counts approx. 60.000 inhabitants. The closest metropolis is Szczezin in Poland, bigger cities in Germany are Berlin (3 hours) and Hamburg (4 hours) - all are easy to reach with local trains. With nearby ferry connections, Denmark and Sweden are also reachable destinations.
Greifswald is small - but has a lot to offer! Lots of (student) culture, beautiful nature, (maritime) sports activities and much more. Make sure, though, to pack your wind- and waterproof jacket ;-)
Greifswald is where you find our Turbina Pomerania office and where most of the hosting placements are located. Some are also located in the nearby region called "Vorpommern".
