This is exactly the type of house you look for when you come to the Altes Land. Here's a whole bunch of them.
Many houses also have an information board stating the type and year of construction of the house.

On the way from Horneburg to the Elbe, you will pass many renovated fruit farms. It is not only in the Guderhand district that the old farmhouses testify to the wealth and pride of the old fruit growers.

Floodplain Landscape Along the Lühe

Highlight • Natural

Along the Lühe from Horneburg to the mouth of the Elbe - sometimes just nature, sometimes beautiful half-timbered houses. The "pearl" in the middle is Steinkirchen. The best time is after sunrise or late afternoon when the sun is deep.

View of the Elbe River

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Elberadwanderweg leads directly along the Elbe. The alternation between low and high tide is interesting. The ships are impressive.
There is always a place for a quiet break along the way.

July 3, 2021,03.07.2021 Für 'ne Bratwurst an die Elbe

Such a bratwurst also wants to be earned. In great weather I drove through the Alte Land to the Lüheanleger in Grünendeich. It's fun going there again, as the corona rules have been relaxed. After I had strengthened myself and watched the large and small ships on the Elbe, I drove back to Buxtehude via Horneburg.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained 😂😂 Despite the bad weather forecast, I still started. Rain gear on and off, and apart from the last 5km, I didn't really get wet 🤣🤣🤣
