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.

Herzlichen Dank, Heide! Die alten Kolonialbauten sind immer schön anzuschauen, aber die dänischen Händler und vor allem die Kirche waren für die Inuit nicht positiv...

Thanks very much, George! Grasses, flowers and low shrubs do grow, trees as we know them usually don't survive.

You have composed this beautifully Gudrun. Your perspective is superb with the boats and then up to the colourful houses and then we see the tips of the further houses in between. A really beautiful picture.
