Church in Warnemunde


This church is in the old section of the town of Warnemunde. It is just a short walk from the harbour. When we were there, an outdoor market was nearby. There are also many small shops in this part of the town.
The church was open. We went inside. This church is by no means famous, and there are thousands like it in Europe. However, I found it interesting that it had survived the Communist period of East Germany.
Later, when we went on a tour, our guide told us that her uncle had been the pastor of this church during the Communist period. Her family had remained Christian in spite of the intense pressure to abandon their faith.
