Economy and Infrastructure

Dolle is a quiet heathland with tourist potential. In recent years, a wellness hotel and a senior citizens' residential complex have been built. The community is also known regionally for the motocross races that take place near Dolle .

The region immediately west of Dolle is still largely used by the Bundeswehr as a military training area. The military development began as early as 1934. From 1945 to 1994 the Colbitz-Letzlinger Heide - similar to the Lüneburg Heath by NATO - was used by the troops of the Soviet Army due to favorable military strategic conditions . Today, some citizens' initiatives advocate a tourist use of the Colbitz-Letzlinger Heide and thus for a withdrawal of the Bundeswehr.

Transport links

Dolle is on federal highway 189 , halfway between Magdeburg and Stendal . There are other road connections via Burgstall to Tangerhütte and Angern / Rogätz . The former road, which once led directly into the Altmark , has been blocked for decades by the large military training area in the Colbitz-Letzlinger Heide, so that the community of Letzlingen, 12 km away, could only be reached via the almost 50 km detour via Uchtspringe for a long time . A cross-connection from Colbitz (on the B 189) to Born (on the B 71 ) has been open to road traffic since 2004 , which shortens the detour to approx. 33 km. The next train stations are in Mahlwinkel and Tangerhütte on the Magdeburg – Wittenberge route . The Altmark motorway from Magdeburg to Schwerin (in the planning stage) will pass near Dolle.

Attractions

The Protestant village church in Dolle was built in 1907 in the local style.

Monument to the fallen in Dolle

In 1951 the memorial for the victims of the fascist terror was inaugurated at the northern entrance to the town.
