Derelict seabridge leading towards the horizon

From this side the seabridge still looks proud

Boulder and drift wood before sea

In the town, everything close together since the town is build where a small river cut the cliff

maycation Osnabrück

Cathedral towers and ferris wheel

Market Place with St Marien in the background, full of stalls of the

Streetart

Nice shady walk along the Hase (river)

The #Maiwoche, an annual fair in the old city, was decidedly not on the agenda, live music, food stalls, rides, … and loads of people…

maycation Telgte

White two story building opposite the railway station, 1880ie, Gasthaus zum Bahnhof, Telgte

Cobblers house, one story, whitish, green shutters, steep roof with gable

Another Gasthaus, this one in brick, and narrow

Telgte market place with some of the MANY bycicles

Baroque pilgrimage chapel in front of the rather massive parish church

Telgte, apart from being the setting of one of Grass' books, is still an important(ish) Marian pilgrimage, think Kevelaer rather than Lourdes.

The town centre could also be across the border in the Netherlands.
