Guided Story
Here you stand in front of Sankt Annen, a Roman Catholic church located on Schmuggelstieg, right at the border with Norderstedt. Dedicated to Saint Anne, the grandmother of Jesus, the church reflects a simple yet serene architecture that invites reflection. If you look to the south, about 395 meters away, you will find the memorial for forced labor at the Hanseatic chain factories. This area is closely tied to the historic customs post known as Ochsenzoll. It’s a peaceful spot, weaving together threads of history and faith.
