Liness - shoppen & schlemmen

Dress store

👍👍 Very fine and cozy atmosphere. I came by spontaneously and saw the outdoor seating. Inviting and a little away from the hustle and bustle. Here I had to enjoy a latte macchiato. Perfect. And the price is not off the charts. Clear recommendation. I'll try the cakes sometime.

Leuchturm Pagensand Süd (Ausstellungstück)

Historical landmark

👍👍 It's best to take ferry 62 and get off at the Oevelgönne museum harbor.

Beautifully restored, it stands tall. Monument worth...

Zitronenjette

Monument

Grabstätte von Hannelore und Helmut Schmidt (Altbundeskanzler)

The grave almost se...
