엘회프트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 호수

Without a sign, you wouldn't notice that you're walking into another country... It's nice how easy this can be these days.

the landscape is simply moving

The former marl pit is now a beautiful leisure pool. A day ticket costs €3.00 and is well worth it.

A very nice border crossing. We had very nice weather here. As you can see in the collage. Have fun on your tours!

Old landmark in the street. DRP stands for German Reich Prussia

Here at the quarry lake you can take a nice break. The lake cannot be circumnavigated on foot or by bike on the shore. But you can go all the way down to the shore, there are small places where you can sit and rest. You should NOT swim in the lake!!! The shore is very sandy and soft.

When the province of Schleswig-Holstein was divided between Denmark and Germany after the Schleswig referendum in 1920, the new border ran through Rudbøl, dividing the town into Danish and German parts. In Rudbøl is boundary stone no. 245. This is in the middle of the road that leads from Germany to Denmark. To the west of the road is the Danish side of the border, to the east is the German side. Rudbøl originally had three inns, two of which are still in use. The Grænsekro inn has existed in the village since 1711, which has bought a few houses and rents them out as holiday apartments. There is a campsite next to the inn. There is also a youth hostel in Rudbøl. On today's German side there is the former Rosenkranz Kro, which is now called Alter Deutscher Grenzkrug and is located in the Rosenkranz district of the municipality of Aventoft.

The Rosenkranz-Rudbøl border crossing is probably one of the most beautiful of the Germany-Denmark border crossings. And one of the most unusual. Because here the border runs for a length of 130 meters in the middle of the road and then right through Ruttebüller Lake (Rudbøl Sjø). The road that winds between the houses to the Rosenkranz-Rudbøl border crossing is narrow. This unusual border town is located near the west coast and near the Emil Nolde Foundation in Neukirchen. On the road, pedestrians are constantly looking for the embedded border markers. So you don't know exactly whether you are in Germany or Denmark, and the border runs partly between the houses in a westerly direction. But why was the border drawn this way at the Rosenkranz-Rudbøl border crossing? One explanation describes the personal wish of the house owners on the western side to belong to Denmark. In fact, part of the border runs between the properties. The other version says that the planned border should have run right through the Old German Border Krog and so it was agreed that the border should be in the middle of the road. The most likely scenario, however, is that the Ruttebüller See was to be allocated half to both countries in order to give the rush cutters and fishermen equal opportunities. The western Koog, however, should definitely belong to Denmark and so it was agreed that the border between Denmark and Germany should run along the middle of the top of the dike towards the Koog. And this very top of the dike is the road. The border itself is marked with buoys on the Ruttebüller See. https://mare.photo/grenzuebergang-rosenkranz/
