Spain
– France (ESFR) Border marker no 600
The
border marker photographed towards southeast. The Spanish town of
Portbou is in the background. A Spanish group of children on tour
learn about the local history from the Spanish Civil War. |
|
Just
under the "600" number on the marker we find another marker. |
|
The
text reads "Nivellement General" and "I.G.N." It
appears to be a French geodetic levelling marker. Inside it should have
been a plate with the altitude of the location, but it was not
there. 1) |

of the marker area towards northeast. The air distance to marker no 601 is
about 1006 m. |
|
On
the top of the border marker cliff there was another geodetic marker with
the text "NAPG 108". This might be a Spanish geodetic
marker. |
