Greifswalder

Greifswalder refers to something or someone from or related to the city of Greifswald. Greifswald is a historic Hanseatic city located in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany, on the Baltic Sea coast. It is known for its picturesque old town, its university, and its connection to the painter Caspar David Friedrich.

As a noun, "Greifswalder" can be used to denote a male inhabitant of Greifswald. The feminine form is "Greifswalderin." The plural for both is "Greifswalder." When used as an adjective, "Greifswalder" describes anything originating from or associated with the city, such as "Greifswalder Bodden" (a bay) or "Greifswalder Dom" (the city's cathedral).

The city itself plays a significant role in the history of Pomerania and the Hanseatic League. Its university, the University of Greifswald, was founded in 1456 and is one of the oldest in Germany. Greifswald's port has historically been important for trade. The geographical location on the coast influences its climate and economy. The term "Greifswalder" therefore encapsulates a connection to this specific German city and its heritage.
