Passat at Dusk

The view across the waters to the Priwall peninsula, part of Lübeck-Travemünde in Schleswig-Holstein, bordering Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

 

Before the collapse of the GDR, this quiet stretch of land was divided by the inhumane border between West Germany and East Germany.

 

On the left, in the background, stands the majestic four-masted barque Passat, a proud witness to maritime history.

 

Four birds glide across the evening sky, their flight a silent symbol of freedom over a place once defined by division.

 

The harbor lights shimmer on the calm water, completing the tranquil twilight scene.
