This is where "the green belt" runs, the former east / west borders between Lower Saxony and Mecklenburg Western Pomerania. Along with the old border towers, the slab path and concrete pillars are references to the past division of Germany.

The path leads almost straight up and down a few meters behind a former border fence, many of whose concrete posts can still be seen.
