This is where the border that divided Germany and Europe until 1990 ran. The Harzer Grenzweg and the Harzer monastery hike pass here and one of the 15 angel benches is also here.

This is not an "old border crossing", a border crossing did not exist here before. It is more of a "new border crossing" between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.
