Werder, Germany

Heilig Geist Kirche

Spent a wonderful day in Werder, Germany. Great weather for sightseeing. Here is an interior shot of the Heilig Geist Kirche (Holy Ghost Church) in Werder, Germany. Werder, also called Werder (Havel) or Werder upon Havel, is located in the Potsdam-Mittelmark Kreis (district) of Brandenburg, one of Germany's sixteen Bundesländer (federal states), just west of the region's capital city of Potsdam. Werder’s eastern border fronts on the Havel river, a tributary of the Elbe, and Werder’s oldest quarter is located on an island in the river, which is why it is also known as Havel. The name "Werder" means "water surrounded country."
