Klützer Winkel Area

Klützer Winkel is a coastal landscape region in northwest Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, projecting into the Baltic Sea and centred on the town of Klütz. The area is defined by a mixture of low wooded ridges, agricultural land and coastline.

The region includes seaside resorts and sandy beaches, small ports and stretches of agricultural countryside; notable visitor places include Boltenhagen beach and parkland around historic manor houses. It is used for seaside recreation, cycling and short cultural visits.

The Klützer Winkel developed as an area of manor estates and farming villages; many 18th- and 19th-century manor houses and parks survive and form part of the local heritage. The landscape retains a patchwork of fields, hedgerows and small woodlands.

Geographically it lies on the Baltic coast of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, close to the town of Klütz and within the coastal area northwest of Wismar. The region fronts the Bay of Wismar and the broader Lübeck Bay sector of the Baltic Sea.

• Main beach: Boltenhagen contains the region’s main sandy bathing beach and is the principal seaside resort within the Klützer Winkel.
