I was dog walking along an industrial part of the commercial area dock in Schleswig Holsteins small village Schlutup when I came across these congrete structures. I knew them immediately from a visit to the local museum in Schlutup last November with my grandson. Many died attempting to escape East to West over these structures... thank God they are there no more. They are now in a desolate rubbish area but no notice, however I am sure thats what they are. Historic note.. from the Border Document Association.. "From great sorrow to great joy" The Association has set itself the task of not allowing the dramatic events in the dark days of German history and their historical connections to be forgotten. Along with the divided city of Berlin, Lübeck was the only West German city directly on the inner-German border. Today, an extensive collection of uniforms, reports, photo documentations and much more besides, housed in a former customs post, reminds visitors of the history of the border between East and West.
