Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Religious building
Cathedral of Königsberg
The cathedral’s brick silhouette stands within Kant Island’s green spaces. Its tower and long facades can be viewed from several angles in relation to the island landscape.
Museum
Amber Museum
Housed in the Dohna Tower, the museum connects a former fortification with the study of amber. The brick building is a stop in its own right, followed by collections exploring the material and its artistic uses.
Museum
World Ocean Museum
The museum combines maritime collections with objects and installations along the quays. The photographed buoys recall uses of the sea; its different buildings and vessels form separate visitor routes to select.
Natural landscape
Kant Island
The island’s planted spaces frame views of the cathedral and surrounding waterways. This stop focuses on the island landscape and a walk around the monument, complementing the building itself.
