Schifflersgrund, Border museum near Bad Sooden-Allendorf, Germany
The Border Museum Schifflersgrund maintains sections of the former inner-German border with metal fences, observation towers, and military vehicles from the period.
From 1971 to 1984, the East German authorities installed fragmentation mines on border posts, later replacing them with electric signal fences in the 1980s.
The museum preserves memories through audio and video documents, offering insights into life along the inner-German border during the division period.
The museum offers discovery tours, guided visits, and short hikes along the historic border paths, with educational programs designed for students and families.
The facility displays a 1500-meter-long metal grid fence from the 1960s, along with helicopter exhibits and original border control barracks.
