グリーニッカー湖のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

ポツダムの蒸気機関館は、しばしば「モスク」とも呼ばれ、技術史とオリエンタルな雰囲気の建築を融合させた特別な建造物であり、バベルスベルク公園の真のアイキャッチャーです。

You'd think a steam power plant wasn't a place for strolling. And yet it stands there as if it had stepped out of an oriental fairytale—with turrets, battlements, and a chimney that stretches so delicately into the Havel idyll, as if it never wanted to disturb it, but only quietly participate. The Steam Engine House in Babelsberg Park is not an engine house. It's a romantic misnomer. Not only steam was generated here, but also a certain idea of splendor: King Frederick William IV didn't want a tubular structure with a soot-covered edge, but a building with poise. So, in true Prussian style, he let aesthetics triumph over function. And so the building not only pumps water, but also imagination into the mind: Some call it a mosque, others a fairytale castle. But nobody calls it an engine house. Too banal. Those who approach do so either on foot – along one of the park's gently winding paths – or from the water, on the excursion steamer that chugs by like a nostalgic salute to the leisure culture of the 1980s. And then it stands there. Wide, tranquil, defiant – yet playful. The long chimney is an exclamation mark against boredom.

The short hike was fun, as was swimming in the lake.

My sweetheart and I exchanged vows 22 years ago yesterday in this lovely little church with a magnificent view of the Havel River. Unfortunately, my darling didn't live to see our 22nd wedding anniversary, so I was there alone, hiking. I don't know if weddings are still held at St. Peter and St. Paul's Church. But it's an open church. So I was able to enter yesterday, light one of the candles provided for my husband, reminisce about fond memories, and thank God for my wonderful husband and the 22 wonderful years we were able to spend together.
