Stadt Stralsund


The Hanseatic town of Stralsund has a city partnership with the Chinese city of Huangshan in the province of Anhui. The two cities concluded this agreement in October 2015. In addition, the Hanseatic City’s south-north contacts also extend to Morocco. A five-member delegation from the Moroccan city of Meknès visited the Hanseatic city of Stralsund from 8th to 11th September 2019. A year ago, the North African municipality of Stralsund asked for support for the introduction of a tourist guidance system in the Medina (old town), a World Heritage site. The temporary project partnership within the framework of the “Municipal Knowledge Transfer Maghreb – Germany” is financed by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and accompanied by the Service Agency Communities in One World and the Society for International Cooperation. The project aims to promote the exchange of knowledge and experience between North African and German municipalities through jointly implemented urban projects.
