Sellin Pier
Sellin Pier (german: Seebrücke Sellin) is a pier in the Baltic seaside resort of Sellin on the German island of Rügen. The pier has a restaurant near the beach over the water and has a diving gondola (''Tauchgondel''). History Initial plans in 1901 foresaw a 60-metre-long landing stage, but this was deemed insufficient due to the very high number of anticipated visitors. The first 508-metre long pier with a restaurant was built in 1906. Pack ice damaged the structure in 1918; in 1920 the bridge head was destroyed by fire. In 1924, the bridge was again damaged by ice. In 1925 a new pier was built with a platform and concert hall, that had a length of approximately 500 metres. This bridge was destroyed in severe ice conditions in the winter of 1941/1942. The undamaged bridge house survived, however, and from 1950s to the 1970s was the site of a popular dance hall. During this time, however, the structure of the building was neglected and the dilapidated bridgehead, includin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Seebrücke Sellin In Der Blauen Stunde
Seebrücke (Create safe havens) is a decentralized, international, civil society movement that was formed in 2018. It is directed against the European policy of isolationism and, in particular, against the criminalization of sea rescue in the Mediterranean. The members show solidarity with all refugees and call on politicians to create safe escape routes. Emergence The movement arose spontaneously after the rescue ship ''Lifeline'', with 234 rescued people on board, had been prevented from entering a port for days in June 2018. It was initially advertised via a satirical campaign by the Peng Collective, which claimed that the Federal Ministry of the Interior, Building and Community would accept all people in distress in Germany by 2019. The actor Jan Josef Liefers took part in the video, and the movement was advertised by the entertainer Jan Böhmermann. The band as well as 'Mensch Mensch Mensch e.V.' were significantly involved in the development process of the alliance. Since the ...

Panorama - Seebrücke Sellin Auf Rügen - 2008
A panorama (formed from Greek πᾶν "all" + ὅραμα "view") is any wide-angle view or representation of a physical space, whether in painting, drawing, photography, film, seismic images, or 3D modeling. The word was originally coined in the 18th century by the English (Irish descent) painter Robert Barker to describe his panoramic paintings of Edinburgh and London. The motion-picture term ''panning'' is derived from ''panorama''. A panoramic view is also purposed for multimedia, cross-scale applications to an outline overview (from a distance) along and across repositories. This so-called "cognitive panorama" is a panoramic view over, and a combination of, cognitive spaces used to capture the larger scale. History The device of the panorama existed in painting, particularly in murals, as early as 20 A.D., in those found in Pompeii, as a means of generating an immersive "panoptic" experience of a vista. Cartographic experiments during the Enlightenment era precede ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pier
Seaside pleasure pier in England.html" ;"title="Brighton, England">Brighton, England. The first seaside piers were built in England in the early 19th century. A pier is a raised structure that rises above a body of water and usually juts out from its shore, typically supported by piling, piles or column, pillars, and provides above-water access to offshore areas. Frequent pier uses include fishing, [oat docking and access for both passengers and cargo, and oceanside recreation. Bridges, buildings, and walkways may all be supported by architectural piers. Their open structure allows tides and currents to flow relatively unhindered, whereas the more solid foundations of a quay or the closely spaced piles of a wharf can act as a breakwater, and are consequently more liable to silting. Piers can range in size and complexity from a simple lightweight wooden structure to major structures extended over . In American English, a pier may be synonymous with a dock. Piers have been b ...
