Stasi-Schleuse

Highlight • Historical Site

Through this 40-meter-long concrete tube once Stasi employees were clandestinely rooted through the inner-German border - sometimes for espionage to West Germany, sometimes for rapport to East Germany. If you are brave, today you can even crawl through it yourself.

Patrol path at the Inner German border

On the Gobert you can follow the border relatively quickly on the patrol path.

East German Border Column on the Gobert

Highlight • Monument

A weathered border post remembers when Germany was divided by an inner German border. Today, the border between Hesse and Thuringia runs here, which you can luckily cross without hindrance. There is also a beautiful view.
