The two replica border huts are in front of the hotel "Zur Schanze" in Holtgast. They point to the fact that there was a customs post in Holtgast, which secured the Oldenburg counts income. Since the early 18th century, the Frisian Heerweg was the only road that could be used all year round and therefore the official movement of goods could only take place here.
