    It's not easy to walk on the column path. It is nice that the former border strip has been preserved as a protected landscape area.

      In the past, Zruppen of the People's Army patrolled here to secure the German-German border.

        One can hardly imagine that this was an absolutely restricted area and only the border guards had access. The border line can still be seen on the basis of the convoy paths. Otherwise you can fortunately no longer see any separating walls and fences.
