Aussichtspunkt und Fähranlegestelle Krughorn

From the Havelufer in Berlin you have a great view of the Heilandskirche at the Port of Sacrow. The extraordinary church based on the Italian model is in an exposed and idyllic location directly on the banks of the Havel.

Friedrich Wilhelm IV had this church built in 1844 on the banks of the Havel at Sacrow. The castle Sacrow is only a few meters, to the ferry also. In GDR times she was in the border area and suffered numerous damages. Restored in 1990, today it shines again in the old splendor. It is widely seen over the Havel.

To the south of the Potsdam district of Sacrow, on the banks of the Havel, is the Heilandskirche at the Port of Sacrow, also simply called Heilandskirche or Sacrow Church. The church, which is exceptional for its location and style, was built in 1844. Friedrich Wilhelm IV wanted a church in Italian style with a free-standing bell tower (campanile). It was built by his architect Ludwig Persius based on the king's sketches. It had been in the area of the Berlin Wall since 1961 and suffered considerable damage during this time. After the political change, it was restored in the 1990s. Embedded in the Sacrower Schlosspark, it is part of the Potsdam Havel landscape, which extends from the Pfaueninsel to Werder. The Heilandskirche is part of the World Heritage Site Palaces and Parks of Potsdam and Berlin and is therefore under the protection of UNESCO. The church has had this status since 1992 when it became the World Heritage Site in 1990. (...)
