    The Wülperode border memorial is a memorial that commemorates the period of German division. It is located in the area of Wülperode in the Harz district, in the immediate vicinity of Wiedelah in the Goslar district. It includes an originally preserved section of the border fortifications of the GDR.

    The area had grown over the years; it was prepared as a memorial by members of the Abbenrode home association and by teachers and students from the Fallstein grammar school in nearby Osterwieck. Information boards were drawn up and set up. The site is now a listed building.

    At the beginning of 1990, the council of the municipality of Wülperode / GDR still had the opinion on the opening of the border: "Have time until summer".
    Johannes Bienert - the mayor of Wiedelah - on the other hand fought to open the border quickly and, through his tireless efforts, managed to get the border fence opened on February 10, 1990 between Wiedelah and Wülperode at 10:00 a.m.
