The first
(unexpected) location was the semi-deserted
border crossing Zollamt Elten
Autobahn connecting the Dutch highway A12
and the German nr.3. Since border controls were
abolished with Schengen treaty these
constructions stand unused and are slowly rotting
away. I had
visited the other side of the highway a few years
ago: the webpage is here.

Most of
the administrative buildings stand empty. The
bank was closed in 2004 (?) and the ATM
wouldnt take my card. I was looking for the
exact border, but couldnt find it. Later on
Google maps I discovered it runs parallel to the
highway, in the greenery between the two asphalt
strips - totally inaccessible. |
