The Border Crossing at Kupfermühle/Kruså
Culture
Tourguide
After the plebiscite in 1920, the border in this area ran along the Krusau brook, and the border crossing was located 200m north of here. In the same year, the copper mill factory area – which was divided by the Krusau waters - was annexed completely to Germany. In compensation, the border at Krusau was moved 500m to the south. Initially, the German customs made do with a makeshift wooden shack until a modern new building was erected in 1923. The Danes settled in the old "Weidmannsruh" pub. It wasn't until 1956 that customs buildings, suitable for German and Danish customs, were erected. At that time, more than a million motor vehicles passed through this border crossing every year. To check at the border, you had to get out of the car, and clearance only took place in the buildings. It was not until 1962 that the border guards stood on the roadways - but still only during summer. In 1966, the control booths were finally placed at the edge of the road. When the Schengen Agreement came into force on 25 March 2001, the Kupfermühle/Kruså border crossing became obsolete.
