About Riether Werder

Riether Werder is an island. Location: Vorpommern-Greifswald, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

From Wikipedia

The Riether Werder, also Riethscher Werder, is an island in the Nowe Warpno Lake, a bay in the Szczecin Lagoon. It is the only island in the lagoon on German territory. The first recorded mention of the island dates to the year 1252, when Duke Barnim I of Pomerania gifted this island along with other possessions to Eldena Abbey. It was then given it the Slavic name Wozstro. The present name of the island is derived from the village of Rieth on the southern shore of the bay.
