Lutz Lange Bilnzturm Belzturm: New holiday resort with history!

Wittenberge, Deutschland - A former GDR border tower in Cumlose recently caused excitement at an auction. Lutz Lange, a regionally known entrepreneur, auctioned the striking building for a proud 156,000 euros - with a minimum bid of only 5,000 euros. The border tower thus prevailed as the most popular object of the auction on June 27 in Berlin, in which a total of 65 bidders competed for the historical structure. Lutz Lange, who also redesigned the old oil mill in Wittenberge into a holiday resort, is planning another step towards the tourist attractiveness of the region with this project.

his project for the border tower includes the creation of two to three holiday apartments and a small museum on the upper floor, which is intended to present the history of the border tower. This access to history should not only offer locals, but also tourists the opportunity to learn more about the past of border security. In his first auction participation, Lange experienced an exciting bidding battle, which exceeded the price of 100,000 euros within a few minutes, and as managing director of the elberesort, he knows how to find the correct way of dealing with such valuable historical properties.

tourist connection and renovation plans

The renovation of the tower is estimated at between 250,000 and 300,000 euros, and long plans to advance the work as soon as possible. Access to the tower should be made via the Hotel Alte Oilmühle - by canoe or bike. The proximity to the ferry between Lütkenwisch (Brandenburg) and Schnackenburg (Lower Saxony) is also integrated into the future tourist use. Lutz Lange also provides for a collaboration with the blue light museum in Beuster, which could increase the attractiveness of further local sights.

The completion of the project is planned for the State Garden Show 2027 in Wittenberge, whereby the plans should begin as early as 2025. With his sense of monument protection and experience with renovations, such as Kletzke Castle, it has long been well positioned to master the challenges. In a region in which tourism is an important economic factor, the border tower could become a real attraction.

accessibility in the focus

An important aspect that the planning must not lose sight of is the accessibility for people with restrictions. According to the official website Experience border towers , many of these historical sites are currently not barrier-free. It is crucial that future renovations also take into account the needs of all user groups so that everyone has the opportunity to experience and enjoy the history of this historic place.

With committed plans and a vision for the development of the border tower, Lutz could not only preserve an important part of regional history, but also significantly upgrade the tourist offer in the area. A clever move that combines the charm of the past with modern uses.
