St. John's Church (Seester)

Highlight • Religious Site

The Protestant-Lutheran St. John's Church in Schleswig-Holstein Seester is a patronage church of the monastery Uetersen (today Protestant noble lady). St. John became Protestant only in 1555 because the monastery Uetersen refused until then to convert the order of the Danish king to follow.

Picnic Table in Seester

Highlight • Rest Area

I followed this tour as a participant a long time ago and edited it on screen. This resulted in three parts, which I combined when I repeated it on a second device.

Thatched-Roof Houses of Seestermühe

Highlight (Segment) • Settlement

The short detour off the bike path is worth it to cycle through this beautiful road. There are picturesque front gardens like the picture book and great thatched cottages to see.

Klevendeich Swing Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The swing bridge over the Pinnau was completed in 1887. As a cultural monument, it is now a listed building and is one of the two oldest swing bridges still in operation in Germany. The bridge keeper used to crank the bridge up and down with a handwheel to turn it sideways for shipping. Today this is done by an electric motor.

View of the canal with seating

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is a bench there for a break.
The spot is at least on one of my tours, which I repeat occasionally.
At this point there is a turnoff to the Utweg. The Utweg is an alternative to Kalkes Weg, which runs parallel to the Utweg. Kalke's path is in very poor condition. I also fell there once.
The poor fastening has been partially removed. The removal of road and path pavements without replacement leads to a worsening of the poor condition.
Villages that want to become a city fortify their paths and cities that want to remove the fortifications become a village, or how should you see that?

October 26, 2024,Teil 3: Kölln-Reisiek, Elmshorn, Seester, Seestermühe
The entire tour goes via Seeht-Ekholt, Kölln-Reisik, Elmshorn, Seestermühe and Seester and consists of three parts because the road through Elmshorm had to be improved.

Showing Translation

Recording turned on too late and missed an extension.
I definitely have to improve the town through Elmshorn.
