Interested visitors can learn everything about the border system and the fates of escapees. Next door is a museum pavilion, which contains an exhibition and where original escape boats can be seen.

Opening hours: from June to September Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 3 - 5 p.m. and October to May Tuesday and Friday from 3 - 5 p.m.
