The name "Schwedenschanze" is actually wrong. The name comes from the fact that old fortifications were simply called that in the past.
This rampart consists of up to five ramparts and was intended to protect the Lübsche area from the Mecklenburgers.

View of the Schlutuper Wieck

Highlight • Viewpoint

A little to the left, on Mühlenweg, there are a few benches for a break with a view of the water.
We had the impression that this is also the local dog bathing area. 😉

View of Schlutup Marina

Highlight • Viewpoint

View of the Schlutup yacht harbor and the northern bank of the Trave (Dummersdorf). If you are lucky, you will also see an excursion boat that runs between Lübeck and Travemünde or a ferry that has made it further up the Trave than to Travemünde ...

Lübeck‑Schlutup Border Documentation Center

Highlight • Historical Site

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.

Hohe Meile forest area

Highlight • Forest

If you want to climb a few meters in the supposedly flat north, you can let off steam in the "Hohe Meile" forest area. Although mainly on forest highways it goes up and down here. It gets rougher towards the banks of the Trave. Unfortunately, there are many dead ends there.

Alte Grenzstraße Information Sign

Highlight • Monument

The steles on border history can be found in many places in this region. They are part of the project "Borderless from Lübeck to Boltenhagen" and explain what it meant that the Baltic coast was a border area during the GDR era.
