ErlebnisMaritim Großenbrode

Maritime Summer on Südstrand

The Baltic Sea spa Großenbrode on the peninsula between Fehmarnsund and Heiligenhafen has been a place where maritime identity is still visibly lived for decades. ErlebnisMaritim bundles this identity over a weekend in July: at the MeerBühne on Südstrand, shanty choirs, coastal musicians, model builders, hobby sailors, and culinary exhibitors with a maritime focus present themselves for two days.

What awaits you

The program is designed as a family- and holidaymaker-friendly beach format. The focus is on:

• Shanty and Coastal Music on the MeerBühne — Shanty choirs from the North German coast with classics and newer pieces from the maritime song repertoire
• Maritime Exhibitions — Ship models, harbor photography, hands-on shipbuilding technology
• Coastal Culture — Coastal landscapes, Wadden Sea themes, nature conservation on the Baltic Sea
• Culinary Delights — Fish specialties, Holsteiner Sauerfleisch, regional beer and schnapps specialties
• Family Program — Child-friendly stations related to ships, sailors, and coastal life

The MeerBühne on Südstrand

The MeerBühne is Großenbrode's central open-air stage. It is located on Südstrand with a direct view of the Baltic Sea and the Fehmarnsund (sundial bridge on the horizon) and forms the heart of the summer event season — in addition to ErlebnisMaritim, MeerPfingsten, the Pentecost festival on Südstrand, as well as numerous other concerts and festival formats take place here throughout the year. Its location on the beach makes the stage one of the most atmospheric venues in the Lübeck Bay.

Großenbrode and Lübeck Bay

The Baltic Sea spa Großenbrode is located in the district of Ostholstein on the narrow land connection between the mainland and the island of Fehmarn. With around 2,200 inhabitants, the municipality is small but very popular with tourists — the kilometer-long beaches on the south and north parts of the peninsula, the marina, and its direct location on the A1 / E47 / E45 attract thousands of holidaymakers every year. The organizers complement the tourist season with a bouquet of events — ErlebnisMaritim is one of the most characteristic of them.
