Denkmal Öffnung des Eisernen Vorhangs

  • Photo: Iron Curtain Trail, Burgenland Tourismus
Das Denkmal erinnert seit 2004 an die - medienwirksame - Öffnung des Eisernen Vorhangs durch die beiden Außenminister Alois Mock und Guyla Horn am 27. Juni 1989. Leider fehlt eine Hinweistafel auf den offiziellen Beginn der Grenzöffnung zwischen Nickelsdorf und Hegyeshalom am 2. Mai 1989.
