In the 12th and 13th centuries, the castle "Haus Demmin", the royal seat of the West Pomeranian dukes, developed from a castle settlement. Due to the proven membership of Demmin from 1283 to 1615 in the medieval Hanseatic League, the city joined the "Hanseatic League of Modern Times" in 1992. Since 1994 Demmin has proudly carried the additional name "Hanseatic City". The Hanseatic city of Demmin is nestled in the charming Peene Valley, on the edge of one of the last fens in Germany. The rivers Peene, Trebel and Tollense meet within the urban area.
