Apfelblüte Werderaner Obstgärten

About this spectacle

Each spring, the orchards surrounding Werder (Havel) near Potsdam burst into a sea of white and pale-pink apple blossom. Walking among the flowering trees, visitors are enveloped by a gentle fragrance carried on cool Brandenburg breezes. The surrounding Havel lakes reflect the soft pastel tones of the blossoming branches, and bees fill the air with a low, steady hum. The event has been celebrated in the region for well over a century, drawing visitors who wander narrow orchard paths between rows of mature apple trees in full bloom. On clear days the backdrop of the Havel waterways and the low, open landscape of Brandenburg adds a quiet pastoral beauty to the scene. The spectacle is most intense during a relatively short window — typically just one to two weeks — making timing important for those hoping to catch peak colour.
