Sisimiut old town

Sisimiut old town
Sisimiut lies on Greenland's West Coast, 50 m north of the Arctic circle. It is Greenland's second largest town with ca. 5500 inhabitants. People have been living there on and off since 2500 b.C. In 1756 the Danish established a colony which they called Holsteinsborg. The church (1773) and the houses in the old town are from the 18th century, the modern town stretches beyond.

Sisimiut liegt 50 km nördlich des Polarkreises an Grönlands Westküste. Es ist mit ca. 5500 EInwohnern die zweitgrößte Stadt Grönlands. Früheste Siedlingsspuren gehen auf 2500 v.Chr. zurück. 1756 gründeten die Dänen eine Kolonie, die sie Holsteinsborg nannten. Die Kirche (1773) und die Häuser der alten Stadt stammen alle aus dem 18. Jh, die heutige moderne Stadt breitet sich dahinter aus.

Vielen Dank, Karin! Da wäre ich gerne länger geblieben, aber hinter mir war schlechtes Wetter im Anmarsch, ich wurde auf dem Rückweg klatschnass;-)

i think this is even more colourful than Norway! The church in particular is very nice. A perfect foreground for a lovely scene.
