Werder Island, close to Berlin

To the southwest of Berlin lies the town called "Werder" on the shores of the river "Havel". It is famous for its fruit plantations and gets really busy during fruit bloom times. Part of the town is on an island which is connected to the main city. The island has a central market place, cobblestone streets, a fruit museum, and a beautiful old windmill. There is a great restaurant selection also close to the water with great nature views. We loved wandering around the old houses, enjoying the sun for a coffee break, and sitting on the swings pretending to the 10 years old again. A really pretty little place, perfect to spend some time to wander around, take photos, eat and drink!
