Charlotte’s Legacy – Historic Parson’s Widow House, Rügen

Historic Parson’s Widow House with Soul: In the 17th century, Charlotte Pistorius lived here, closely connected to poet Ernst Moritz Arndt. The 85 m² upstairs apartment offers 3 bedrooms with 1 double bed and 2 single beds. A special highlight for guests of all ages is our "Mini-Realm": two rustic "caves" on each side of the house, located under the eaves—each with a full-size single bed, suitable for adults. The entrance area is lower than a standard door, and the ceiling follows the roof slope—a cozy retreat that requires you to duck when entering.



As a centuries-old house, Charlotte’s Legacy has developed its own unique character. In the upper living area, please note the following steps: one each from the kitchen to the living room, from the living room to the hallway, and to each of the three bedrooms. Guests with limited mobility should consider this when booking.



We have lovingly combined the original 17th-century character with modern comfort. Space for 4 people and a baby up to 2 years old (baby cot available on request). Pets are not allowed.



Your apartment includes a private garden area for barbecuing, relaxing, or enjoying a glass of wine in the evening sun.



Just a few steps away: supermarket, bakery, hairdresser, and snack bar. Ernst Moritz Arndt Museum and Burgwall are within walking distance.
