Germany: Pirna

On Monday I got three postcards from Germany.

One of them shows Pirna. Pirna is a city in the German State of Saxony. It is famous as birth place of Johann Tetzel and for the paintings by Bernardo Canaletto. Between 1940 and 1941 15000 disabled people were killed in Pirna's Sonnenstein Castle. 


Stamp:
Chiemsee (from set of two) (issued 01-07-2015)


Thank You very much Karsten!
