This one should be a replica, not original.The GDR border posts were markings of the state border of the GDR and were first erected on the inner-German border in autumn 1967. The location was initially about one meter behind the border line, later they were moved back about 5 to 10 meters on GDR territory. (Source: Wikipedia)

Beautiful old boundary stone, which still shows where the old border used to be.

German history, we experienced it in the GDR and know that this place was unattainable for us. It's over, Germany is reunited 👍
