Tangermünde
About 25 years ago I cycled through here from Hamburg to Dresden. We were young...we were fast... :-)

We were here once exactly 6 years ago on the weekend. Nevertheless, this round was interesting for us again. Tangermünde is a really pretty city.
You can no longer see the Elbe, all the flood plains are full to the brim.

I've always wanted to visit Tangermünde. Today I made a detour on my way back from Prignitz.
What a beautiful town, especially the old town with its city walls, churches, castle, and other interesting buildings.
