    During the GDR era, we used the Lübeck-Schlutup border crossing to Selmsdorf many times to visit our relatives who lived along the Baltic coast. I remember the oppressive atmosphere and the pounding heart when you drove down this road and were about to be checked by the GDR border guards.

    The fact that you can ride a bike here today in the sunshine is a great blessing.

      With the fall of the Berlin Wall or the opening of the border between the German Democratic Republic (GDR) and the Federal Republic of Germany, the border that the GDR had built over decades into an almost insurmountable dividing line lost its ugly face on November 9, 1989. Since its creation, it had brought great suffering to us Germans. The emotions reflected in the tears of joy of those people on the day the border was opened can perhaps only be fully imagined by those of us for whom the term "freedom" is not something everyday and self-evident.

      The dramatic events of those days and the historical context must never be forgotten. The Lübeck-Schlutup Border Documentation Center has made it its mission to preserve the memories of this event and to promote historical awareness, especially among the younger generation. Extensive collections and documentation show the inhumane border situation in Lübeck from its creation to its opening in 1989.
