25 year lease: New life for the Prerow campsite!
Big news for the Prerow campsite: The state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has signed a new lease agreement with Ahoi Camp Prerow GmbH. The contract has a term of an impressive 25 years and is primarily intended to ensure that necessary renovations are started promptly. Environment Minister Till Backhaus (SPD) was present at the signing of the contract and emphasized that this step will reduce the concerns of many long-term campers regarding a possible closure of the site. The country has also regained control of its forest area, which is part of the campsite. NDR reports that ...
Ahoi Camp Prerow GmbH took over operations last season and was able to record 85,000 overnight stays this year. It looks like there will be changes to both the number of permanent camper sites and the sanitary facilities. The parking spaces are to be reduced to a total of 910 by 2032. Previously there were over 1,000 parking spaces. This seems to be a well-thought-out measure to increase the quality and comfort on the pitch. N-TV reports that ...
Disputes surrounding Rainbow AG
But not everything is going smoothly in Prerow. A legal dispute between the state and the former operator, Regenbogen AG, continues to escalate. This sees the lease valid until 2042, while the state announced the termination on December 31, 2023 and disputes its validity. This is a controversial area of around 15 hectares, where Regenbogen AG has already invested in various sanitary facilities and power supply. The Stralsund regional court will hear the crucial questions next Tuesday. Nordkurier reports that ...
The fact that things are not easy is also shown by the ongoing proceedings for damages amounting to millions that resulted from the termination. Rainbow AG filed several lawsuits against the termination, but suffered numerous defeats in court. Some of the sports facilities could have already been handed over in a different context due to an evacuation order.
A clouding of the location level?
A further dimension is brought into play by a suspected mastermind of a sabotage operation from 2022, whose extradition from Italy has now been completed. This should be presented to the Federal Court of Justice. The question arises as to how such incidents could influence the attractiveness of the campsite and the region in the long term.
Things remain exciting in Prerow, while the new operators have clear plans to make the place fit for the future and take the concerns of long-term campers seriously.
