    Border companies were numerous in the restricted area and regularly distributed in the towns along the former German-German border. There were at least four in the lowlands alone.

      - First of all, you can pedal very smoothly on the cycle path between Ummerstadt and Bad Colberg
      - due to the location, one or the other memorial reminds of almost forgotten times. Very interesting background information is described on the information boards, including about (working) life at the border fence
      - a short stop doesn't hurt
      - Nearby is also the Ummerstadter Kreuz and the border village of Billmuthausen, which was razed to the ground. Can be combined quite well and gives insights into the time

        There is a memorial plaque for a company of the border guard troops here.
