=== Kloster === [[File:Hiddensee asv2022-08 img39 Leuchtturm Dornbusch.jpg|thumb|Lighthouse on the Dornbush]] ==== Dornbusch lighthouse ==== {{Main|Dornbusch Lighthouse}} In the north of the island, on the Schluckswiek in the so-called highlands of Hiddensee, stands the landmark of the island, the Hiddensee Lighthouse. 102 steps lead up to the tower, which has been open to visitors since 1994. However, so that it doesn't get too crowded up there, only 15 visitors can climb the tower at a time. From [[WindForce|wind force 6]], the tower remains closed for safety reasons. ==== Gerhart Hauptmann House ==== [[File:Haus Seedorn auf Hiddensee.jpg|thumb|Gerhart Hauptmann Haus]] In the former country house Modler and later [[house Seedorn]] the writer [[Gerhart Hauptmann]] was a summer guest already in 1926. Four years later he bought it from the municipality and added an annex. From 1930 to 1943 he spent the summer months here with his wife. In 1956, it became the Gerhart Hauptmann Museum, which also hosts readings and concerts. The literature pavilion, built in 2012 in a strikingly modern form on the property, serves as the entrance and houses the ticket office, museum store (bookstore) and a permanent exhibition ''Literaturlandschaft Hiddensee.'' ==== Hiddensee Island Church ==== Hiddensee Island Church was built in 1332 in front of the monastery, of which nothing is preserved today (the so-called [[monastery gate|Klostertor]] was built only after the monastery was abandoned). For centuries it served as a parish church for the inhabitants of the island. In 1781 it was rebuilt in the Baroque style - the pulpit altar, confessional, baptismal angel and baptismal font date from this period. The painted barrel vault, the so-called Hiddenseer Rosenhimmel, however, is only from 1922. Today, the island church is the seat of the Protestant parish of Hiddensee. ==== Lietzenburg ==== {{Main|Lietzenburg}} The Lietzenburg is a listed [[Art Nouveau]] villa built by the painter [[Oskar Kruse]] in 1904/1905. It is a brick building with natural stone foundation on a hill near the Dornbusch. For many years it has served as a boarding house for artists. ==== Museum of local history Hiddensee ==== The museum of local history Hiddensee is a simple plaster building in Kloster. It offers a permanent exhibition on the island's history with about 450 exhibits, a complete copy of Hiddensee treasure found on the island, files, about 2500 photographs, postcards and slides, and an extensive library. Some works by well-known representatives of the Hiddensee artists' colony are also in the museum's collection. The building itself dates back to 1890 and was a sea rescue station. ==== Doktorandenhaus ==== Only a few steps away from the Gerhart Hauptmann Museum, at Biologenweg 5, stands the [[Doktorandenhaus]], built in 1925 by [[Max Taut]] for the Berlin publishing director Max Gehlen.<ref>''[https://web.archive.org/web/20190822114726/https://www.seebad-hiddensee.de/kulturelles/aktuelle-termine/details/event/show/tag-des-offenen-denkmals-21/ Tag des offenen Denkmals in Kloster auf Hiddensee].'' {{in lang |de}} 10 September 2017, archiviert vom Original am 22 August 2019. Retrieved 2019-08-22</ref> In 1930, the island administration bought the building as a summer house for the [[Hiddensee Biological Station|Biological Station of Hiddensee]]. Since about 1990, it has served as a seminar and accommodation building for the [[University of Greifswald]]. ==== Eggert Gustavs Museum ==== In the settlement area Am Bau, the Alte Schmiede was converted into a museum and opened in 2019. It honors the life and work of the artist [[Eggert Gustavs]], who died in 1996 and was the son of the island's long-time pastor [[Arnold Gustavs]], and thus aims to make him known to wider circles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190617162334/http://www.eggert-gustavs.de/html/museum.html Info รผber das geplante Gustavs-Museum] (Archived 17 June 2019 in ''Internet Archive'') </ref>
