The Villa Oppenheim at Delbrückstra e 11 in Heringsdorf is one of the best-known examples of the villas on the island of Usedom.

It was built in 1883 as a summer villa for the family of the banker Benoît Oppenheim sen. (1842–1931). It is no longer possible to say for certain who planned the neoclassical white building on the beach promenade, which is adorned with four Corinthian columns, but it is possible that the building was designed by the Berlin architect Hermann von der Hude.

In the Ännchenstrasse in Bad Godesberg there are 33 gravestones in a surrounding plot. It is not actually a Jewish cemetery. The stones were discovered after 1950 on the slopes of the Gosesberg. It is possible that the stones come from an older cemetery that was occupied until 1895.

The Ännchenstrasse is named after Ännchen Schumacher, the "Lindenwirtin". She played a major role in student life.
