In the Middle Ages a place of prayer, later an educational institution, today's Pomeranian State Museum is dedicated to the eventful history, culture and art of Pomerania, located directly on the market square of the Hanseatic city of Greifswald.

Built between 1998 and 2005, the award-winning building ensemble now houses exhibits from 14,000 years of history, from the first settlers in Pomerania to the splendid epoch of the Hanseatic League, Swedish and Prussian rule and the emergence of the imperial baths. The National Museum's Picture Gallery presents a top-class collection with works by Caspar David Friedrich and Philipp Otto Runge, Vincent van Gogh, Max Liebermann and Alexej von Jawlensky.
