[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the oldest church in Limbe, 60km north of Douala roughly. It was erected in the XIXth century by the Germans.

It's located along the church street in front of the sea. One can find a dozens of churches on that same street, most of them being Presbyterian ones.

Bonsoir steven,
Joli témoignage du cameroun. Il est surprenant de ne voir personne sur ta photo tellement on est habitué à toujours voir des images d'afrique avec une foule bigarrée.
Jolie lumière.
Amicalement

Hi Steven!
This picture is special: it shows a fine piece of old architecture at the same time showing some unattractive things - stains on the walls, ugly surroundings.
Yet, the church looks good, despite all the rest.

Très intéressante papagolfade africaine.On voit que la construction (ou les réparations) a été faite avec les moyens du bord....
