Obverse description
The Lutheran church (also: town church) in the East Prussian town of Insterburg (now Russian: Tschernjachowsk) was a plastered brick choir built between 1610 and 1612. Until 1945, it was - from 1911 with the Melanchthonkirche - the main Protestant church in the `city of three rivers`. It was blown up in 1972 and demolished, its wall remaining afterwards.
Reverse description
The banknote features Insterburg Castle on the upper castle pond. The mill once operated on this pond. The inscription: `Altes Ordensschloß` - `Old Teutonic Castle`.
