Zelenogradsk
Зеленоградск
A Baltic seaside town known as the 'City of Cats', with a long promenade, a Ferris wheel and cat sculptures, and the gateway to the Curonian Spit.
Zelenogradsk (formerly Cranz) was a Prussian seaside resort in the 19th century. Today it is known for the cat sculptures scattered through its streets and the Murarium cat museum, housed in an old water tower. The seafront promenade has a Ferris wheel, cafés and a beach, and it is lively in summer. The town sits at the southern entrance to the Curonian Spit, where you can change transport to enter the national park. From Kaliningrad North Station, a suburban tram takes about 40 minutes.
