Why Berthelsdorf is essential

The stories behind the manor: the first tree, a door with transatlantic reach and the rediscovered Daily Text door. Begin at the beginning →

The estate explains the relationship between Zinzendorf, landholding, the Moravian Church and the new settlement. The nomination describes a historic link via the Berthelsdorf allée, about 1.5 kilometres north-east of the centre. The OSM walking model from the Church Hall is about 1.79 km/24 minutes; relationship distance and route length are different data types.
