Easter Fires - Lucernarium - on the Elbe

robertdouglass (61)in Photography Lovers • 4 years ago

Way back in 2019, I had the chance to take a boat trip on the Elbe river in Hamburg, Germany, to watch the locals burn their Easter fires. The term for this is Lucernarium, a term from the Christian church, which means "celebration of light".

Starting the trip in the harbor (Hafen) area

The Hafen cranes

The guy on top is apparently Judas. Not a good night to be Judas.

Preparing the pyre

That is a MASSIVE amount of firewood

Los geht's!

Spectators on a ship

Burn baby, burn
