  8. ↑ “Halden is an exception. Halden is not a twin city, because Halden only has partnerships with cities from other Scandinavian countries. But Wismar and Halden have been on friendly terms since 1991. They primarily serve to promote the economy. The connection to Halden was made by chance. Employees from the Wismar seaport visited the Scandinavian embassy in Bonn during the fall of the Wall to establish contacts to increase sales. They met an employee from Halden, who then initiated the relationship. These contribute no less to the success of the Wismar Christmas market: The Christmas tree, which can be admired every year on the market square, is provided by the city of Halden. Young people from Wismar have already sailed to Halden on the 'Atalanta' in recent years "
