Maritime Monday

Today I visited a fisherman's village near my hometown and took some pictures.


I needed a break from writing essays for university and the weather was nice, so I took a bus to the nearby village called "Wieck". Times ago it was built by fishermen who mainly catched herrings in the baltic sea, but today it is a popular tourist spot especially in summer. The bridge below is its most famous building, it's about 130 years old.

The ships above are still used to catch fish. There are several stores where you can buy different sorts of fresh fish and there are also some good seafood restaurants.

You can even find some art in form of wooden figures when you visit Wieck. I think the coolest ones are these three heads. As I walked outside the village and to the shore, the wind becomes stronger and stronger. I entered a path that was build over the water and nearly cried because of the cold, stormy air.

On the fence of this path hang many colourful love locks, it is also the outermost point of Wieck. It's making me somehow happy to see these little heartwarming things in such a rough place 💖
Then I went refreshed and satisfied back to the bus. I hope you also had a good monday.

Schöne Bilder ist sicher mega schön im Sommer dort. Ich war mal in Kopenhagen und erinnere mich vorallem sehr gut an die starke Bise die zu dieser Zeit dort herrschte. Die Bise nennen wir zum kalten Wind in der Schweiz der durch das Mittelland fegt ich weiss nicht wie ihr dort die kalten Winde nennt, aber könnte es vielleicht bei euch Nordwind heissen? :)
Ich hoffe aber die kalte Winde halten sich bei euch in Grenzen obwohl ihr an der Ostsee lebt wo die Gegend recht flach ist. :)

Dankeschön, ja im Sommer ist hier auch mehr los. Es gibt sogar einmal im Jahr eine Veranstaltung am Wochenende, nennt sich Fischerfest, da ist im ganzen Dorf Jahrmarkt mit Fahrgeschäften und Fressbuden etc. :) Oh Gott, ich glaube die kalte Brise hat hier gar keinen eigenen Namen, kann man Nordwind nennen, muss man aber auch nicht :D Je näher man am Meer dran ist, desto stürmischer wird es definitiv ^^

The heads are pretty cool. :-)

The cold wind definitely sounds familiar. I live in Kiel and we get far too much of it here! Yesterday morning was below freezing and very windy. Not nice!

Yes, I have been in Kiel a few times. The weather is really similar :)

In maritimer Umgebung schön durchgepustet werden, sich dann erfrischt in ein gemütliches Café setzen und einen dampfenden Kaffee und leckeren Kuchen genießen ... das muss erst einmal übertroffen werden.

Übrigens, ich habe dich heute für die Seven Day Black & White Challenge nominiert: 7 Tage hintereinander ein SW-Foto aus deinem Leben posten - ohne dich und ohne Leute. 😇
