| Dutch Bergh community borders with Germany at its Southern side. On the German side the city of Emmerich on the Rhine can be reached after 1.2 miles. |
 |
Former border
check-point and customs control: abandoned since the
Schengen Treaty. Emmerikseweg |
 |
Closed road-restaurant and closed bureau de change; after the new border crossing at Immenhorst was opened for long distance traffic and since Schengen Treaty both are shut-down for good. |
 |
Coming from the south (Germany) you enter Holland (and 's-Heerenberg city) via a little bridge. |
 |
View back from the other side: the two houses on the left and right side behind the bridge are on German territory. |
 |
The 'Grenskanaal' (="border canal") determines the frontier between Bergh en Emmerik for several miles. |
