July 27, 2024, Genthin Train Accident Memorial

This memorial is located right in front of the station. It is hard to imagine what the accident caused back then.

We actually wanted to take a look at the mill from the outside and promptly we got a private tour from the owner. He showed us everything and explained it very nicely. Thank you very much for the spontaneous home tour.

A lot of fine scree on this path, but it was also wonderful to ride with racing bike tires.

Decelerate on the Elbe Havel cycle path, at the Elbe Havel cross nature appears to be quite untouched.
