Friedensweg, Long-distance trail in Thuringia and Bavaria, Germany.
The Friedensweg extends through 40 kilometers of varied terrain along the former inner German border, featuring 40 information panels along its route.
Established in 1996, this path traces the former boundary between East and West Germany, preserving the memory of divided communities during the Cold War.
The trail includes the German Unity Sculpture Park and the World Peace Cross in Hermannsfeld, marking significant locations of German reunification.
The hiking path combines former patrol roads and economic paths, reaching an elevation of 800 meters with clear markings featuring the Golden Bridge symbol.
Section 43 near the Steinkopf Open-Air Museum maintains original border installations, now protected as ground monuments within a nature conservation strategy.
