A visual tour of the CVJM Frankfurt (Oder)


View from the front of the house

The band room, in the basement - odd place to start, but you'll see where I got the idea from if you watch the ETS (European Tensing Festival) trailer, which was made HERE in Frankfurt (Oder) (and is in English): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMFV1PkULX4. The festival, taking place this summer, will be attended by around 3000 Tensingers from all over Europe, and even from Brasil.

Band room again, and some water heating implement within.

Party room in the basement, rented out for allsorts.

Speaks for itself.


The largest room, called 'Tensing' room, which looks bigger in real life, it's just my camera doesn't take very wide angle shots at all!

The cork floor room. I'd never seen anything like it...

The courtyard - spot the canoes...

Climbing wall and a quarter of the minibus.

The cockerel is Frankfurt (Oder)'s city 'mascot' in a sense - it appears on the city crest. There are several models like this around town, and the CVJM have their own.

Kitchen and conference room, with cooker/oven which I can use.

The office where I work part of the time, looking rather untidy, as can happen. My desk is at the back on the right-hand side.
 

View from my desk - very good to rest my eyes after staring at the screen, peering right down that street all the way to the Lennépassagen, or up at the Oderturm, hundreds of metres away.
