This memorial site in Ritzing commemorates the moving history of the border region and at the same time honours the historical traces of local coal mining. Right next to it, a separate memorial stone commemorates the people who tragically became victims of the Iron Curtain. The monument thus builds a bridge between the former division of Europe and the industrial past of the region.

There's a short unpaved section on the Hungarian side. But it's no problem even with a road bike, as long as it's reasonably dry.

can be crossed by car. Not suitable for racing bikes, as there is a long gravel section on the Hungarian side.
