Tips
The 1.4-kilometer-long
PATH OF HOPE
on the former patrol road invites reflection.
Fourteen monumental sculptures by the artist Dr. Ulrich Barnikel mark a section of the former death strip between Hesse and Thuringia. The Point Alpha Foundation erected it in 2009 to commemorate the resistance against communist dictatorships in Central and Eastern Europe.translated by
