  • Modlareüth (Frankenwald) open-air museum about the border between East and West Germany. Posters of DDR (German Democratic Republic) time. This village at Cold War time was called the Little Berlin because in 1945, Thuringia became part of the Soviet occupation zone, while Bavaria went to the American occupation zone. Divided by the Tannbach River (only one foot wide) which flows through Mödlareuth, the small village became divided by the border between two states. A pass was required to cross between the two parts of town. After the Berlin Wall was built in 1961, walls were built in other towns on the border as well. The wall of Mödlareuth was built in 1966. From that point on, the East German part of the village was strictly monitored day and night, while on the West German side the wall became a kind of tourist attraction. .In 1983, the then U.S. Vice President George H. W. Bush visited and exclaimed, "Ich bin ein Mödlareuther!", an allusion to John F. Kennedy's "Ich bin ein Berliner" statement.[1]..On 17 June 1990, seven months after the Berlin Wall fell and four months before German reunification, the Mödlareuth Wall was knocked down using a bulldozer. A small portion has been retained as a memorial...[edit]

  • Modlareüth (Frankenwald), open-air museum about the border between East and West Germany. On 17 June 1990, seven months after the Berlin Wall fell and four months before German reunification, the Mödlareuth Wall was knocked down using a bulldozer, but a small portion has been retained as a memorial. This village at Cold War time was called the Little Berlin because in 1945, Thuringia became part of the Soviet occupation zone, while Bavaria went to the American occupation zone. Divided by the Tannbach River (only one foot wide) which flows through Mödlareuth, the small village became divided by the border between two states. A pass was required to cross between the two parts of town. After the Berlin Wall was built in 1961, walls were built in other towns on the border as well. The wall of Mödlareuth was built in 1966. From that point on, the East German part of the village was strictly monitored day and night, while on the West German side the wall became a kind of tourist attraction. .In 1983, the then U.S. Vice President George H. W. Bush visited and exclaimed, "Ich bin ein Mödlareuther!", an allusion to John F. Kennedy's "Ich bin ein Berliner" statement.[1]..On 17 June 1990, seven months after the Berlin Wall fell and four months before German reunification, the Mödlareuth Wall was knocked down using a bulldozer.

  • Northen Frankenwald, a Bavaria's finger in the hearth of Turingia. View tower Thuringian Warte (look-out), built in the year 1963, rises 26.5 meters high on the top of the Ratzenberg hill. The air-line distance from there to the border of Thuringia is only 200 meters. Because of its unique situation at the former border between Bavaria and the German Democratic Republic, it was not only a "window" to the other part of Germany, but also an important touristic attraction in Bavaria, which has seen up to about 1 million visitors until present. Even today, after the reunification of the two German states, the Thuringia Warte is still an attraction.
