    Border station and remnants of the "Iron Curtain" From here we go downhill to Hardegg.

      Čížov: Iron Curtain memorial with remains of the fence – around 300 m of barbed wire fence, patrol road, watchtower, information board with the history of the border fortifications.
      For more than forty years, the Iron Curtain formed an impermeable barrier between the Soviet-dominated, socialist Eastern Bloc countries and the United States-led democratic West.
      In 1989 the borders to the West were opened, that was the end of the Iron Curtain!


      Čížov, where one last piece of the Iron Curtain can be seen.

        An impressive testimony to the times, it's nice that we now have such a neighborly relationship.
