This chapel stands in the middle of the enchanting Buckelwiesen alpine meadows located on an alpine plateau between Mittenwald and Krün, one of the most serene places in Bavaria. - in: https://www.zugspitz-region.com/the-alpenwelt-karwendel/cross-station-maria-rast-chapel.html
One more card from Bavaria. It was sent by Marei.
The St. Peter Church in Steinkirchen am Samerberg Is considered the most beautiful church in the district of Rosenheim.
I've been to the Netherlands last April and on this 2nd visit to the country I decided to stay in Utrecht. A visit to De Haar Castle was a possibility as it is located not far from the city. However, when I found out that Muiderslot Castle was part of the Defence Line of Amsterdam, an UNESCO site, I decided to visit it instead of De Haar.
De Haar Castle is the biggest and most luxurious castle in The Netherlands.
The current buildings, all built upon the original castle, date from 1892 and are the work of Dutch architect P.J.H. Cuypers, in a Neo-Gothic restoration project funded by the Rothschild family. - in: wikipedia
