Hier sieht man die modernen Häuser am Fluss und daneben den Kirchturm. Ein ruhiges Bild, das mir gut gefällt.

Jiří Veselý That church looks quite inconspicuous there next to the new houses. Similarly, in Olomouc, we have an old bridge by the Morava River, which has been standing there since the 14th century.
Софья Павлова Where exactly is this church located? Is it possible to go there just like that or just for service?
أنطون حداد This church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas. I think it is open to visitors outside prayer times, but it is best to ask before you go.
Алексей Морозов Yes, this is the Church of St. Nicholas in Linz, right by the Danube. There used to be an old barge pier nearby, which was removed about ten years ago.
Thomas Wright I wouldn't mind seeing that one up close sometime. The tower does look small next to those new buildings.
Андрій Шевченко The Church of St. Nicholas in Linz was built back in the 14th century, and its tower is really low and modest, so in the photo it looks almost like an extension to those modern buildings.
Maria Florea Yes, the tower really does look small next to those tall buildings. I noticed the red brick on the roof of the house on the left, it stands out clearly.
Radmila Radovanović Yes, that tower looks like it's hidden between buildings.
Radu Constantinescu Da, turnul ăla chiar se pierde printre casele noi. Am citit odată că pe malul Dunării în Linz au găsit urme de așezare romană din secolul al II-lea, chiar lângă locul ăsta.
Rachel Moore Yeah the tower really does get lost next to those apartment blocks. Where exactly along the Danube did you take this shot, and was it recent?
Виктор Кузнецов Да, церковь святого Николая в Линце действительно 14 века, а башня у неё совсем невысокая, из простого камня, без всяких украшений. На фоне этих новых домов с плоскими крышами она и правда почти теряется.
Claire Bernard Yes, the raw stone tower really blends in with the modern decor.
Andrew Turner Yes the stone tower does look quite low against those blocks. Is the church open to visitors on weekdays or only for services?
Галина Михайлова Yes, the photo clearly shows how the red tiles on the roof of the neighboring house stand out sharply against the background of gray modern facades. And the tower really almost merges with them.
Nikola Živković Yes, the tower really gets lost next to those new buildings. I know that the church of St. Nicholas in Linz was built on the remains of an older chapel from the 13th century, which is why it is so low and modest.
Katherine Davis The red roof tile really pops.
Тимофей Тарасов Yes, the tower really is almost hidden behind these houses. I would like to see her live.
Григорий Голубев Yes, the tower is really modest compared to these houses. Where exactly along the Danube were they filming, and for how long ago?
