The Village That Lies in Two Countries [View all]

Bearing in mind the bad actors splitting communities apart, this is a heartwarming story from the Dutch-German border

There is an unusual village on the German-Dutch border. Or rather: two villages? In fact, you can't really tell - because the state border runs directly along the village street. On one side the houses are Dutch, on the other German. And if you don't pay close attention, you won't even notice which country you are in. Time to take a closer look at this curiosity.

p.s. this is an excellent channel, worth following
