A Beautiful Street in Lübeck and a Church

Dennis

I walked through the historic downtown of Lübeck, like I mentioned yesterday. As Lübeck is a town of the medieval time and as Lübeck was the Queen of the Hanseatic League, you can still see the charm of that time in the architecture today. That´s why we call the old part of the city “Historic Downtown” or in german “Altstadt” here. On the photo above you can see a street called “Weberstraße” and in the background you see the church called “St. Aegidien Kirche”. The inner city of Lübeck has a lot of big churches from old times.

A mysterious Stone or not

Dennis

We found that Stone with an Inscription near the Baltic Sea in Germany. Translated to English you can read there “The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.” and in German “Die Wasserwogen im Meer sind groß und brausen mächtig; der HERR aber ist noch größer in der Höhe.” We took the Photo with a bad Mobile Phone Camera. I also wasn´t sure what the Shortcut PS934 on the Stone after the Text did mean, so that I did ask Google for it. I then … Continue reading A mysterious Stone or not
