Because of its larger size, it offered many more amenities than Lahnstein, and I spent much of my time there while growing up. <br /> <br /> On our second day in Koblenz, we met up with my older daughter, her husband, and our granddaughters who all flew in from Canada a day earlier. It was an opportunity to introduce our grandkids to their German heritage. We took a cable car across the river from Deutsches Eck to Festung (Fort) Ehrenbreitstein.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/sparkie001uk_photography/">sparkie001uk</a> posted a photo:</p>

Kloster Malchow seen from across the water, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Nuns of the Magdalene order moved here from Röbel in 1298 and founded a convent beside an existing medieval church dating from around 1235.The present building replaced it: a Neo-Gothic brick church built from 1844 to 1849 to designs by the court architect Friedrich Wilhelm Buttel, with a 52-metre square west tower carrying an octagonal upper stage. Fire gutted it on Midsummer Night 1888, leaving only the tower and the outer walls standing.The rebuilding under Georg Daniel, finished in 1890, kept the shell but replaced the flat ceiling with rib vaults and simplified the openings and terracotta detailing, giving the interior a far more austere character. Around 170 different moulded brick shapes were made to produce the filigree Neo-Gothic forms.The church has belonged to the town since 1997 and now houses the Mecklenburg Organ Museum and serves as a concert and wedding venue; its organ is the hundredth work of the Schwerin court organ builder Friedrich Friese III.<br /> <br /> In the foreground the charter motor yacht Calypso, a Futura 36, running past the shoreline under a bright, broken sky.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/203368317@N06/">falconermark92</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/203368317@N06/55508591025/" title="Wetzlar August 2026"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55508591025_459aa790fb_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Wetzlar August 2026" /></a></p>
