From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ruden is a small island in the Baltic Sea, located between Rügen and Usedom off the German coast.
The Ruden belongs to the German state (Bundesland) of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . Before the storm tide of All Saints day 1320, it was part of a land bridge between Usedom and the Mönchgut peninsula of Rügen.
Today, the Ruden is a nature reserve.
'Ruden' is also a term for people with red hair. It is derived from the German term for red head 'Roter'.
