Rügen (district)
Rügen was a Kreis in the northeastern part of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.
The district was bordered entirely by the Baltic Sea. The nearest districts were Nordvorpommern and the district-free city Stralsund. The district covered the islands Rügen and Hiddensee, and several small islands like Ummanz and Vilm. It was thus the only district of Germany which consists solely of islands.History
