Grenzmuseum Sorge
The Grenzmuseum Sorge (approx. 540 m above sea level ) is an open-air museum open to the public and free of charge at Sorge in the Harz Mountains . It is located directly on the former inner-German border southeast of Braunlage and is intended to commemorate the division of Germany into the German Democratic Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany .
In the border museum you can visit the originally preserved border installations of the GDR, including a piece of border fence, the dog run , parts of the signal fence and the concrete slab convoy path , an observation tower and a GDR border column .
The Ring of Memories , which was created by the environmental and landscape artist Herman Prigann in the 1990s, is located directly on the state border between Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony . Based on the model of a witch's circle , the artist used dead wood to create a large ring in which many birds reside like in a benjes hedge .
The Grenzmuseum Sorge is looked after by the association of the same name and has been included since 2006 as No. 46 in the system of stamping points of the Harz hiking pin.
The former station building in the area of Sorge has been used as a museum since the Grenzmuseum Sorge eV was founded.
