The Hanse Sail in Rostock is the largest maritime festival in Mecklenburg (Germany) and one of the largest in Europe. About 250 traditional sailing ships of all types and sizes from a vast variety of countries visit the coast of the city of Rostock every year during the second weekend of August. Today, the Hanse Sail forms part of the joint ''Baltic Sail'', which takes place in several countries bordering the Baltic Sea during July and August. == History == The first Hanse Sail took place between 22–28 July 1991. Despite initial skepticism, the first Hanse Sail turned out to be a great success. This might have been mainly due to enthusiasm sparked by the German reunification, as the sea border was open for the first time in decades. Main attractions in past years were German Navy's training ship ''Gorch Fock'', the ''Alexander von Humboldt (ship)'' and the ''Peace'' from Jamaica. Every Hanse Sail is usually opened by prominent personalities of the time such as Gerhard Schröder or Wolfgang Thierse. This underlines the importance of the event, also for the local tourism industry. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hanse Sail」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
