The Allerbach is a tributary of the Warme Bode in the Harz Mountains of central Germany. It is just under 5 kilometres (3 mi) long. The source region of the "Little Allerbach" (Kleiner Allerbach) is in a boggy wood at a height of 560 m above sea level (NN) and lies about 100 metres (330 ft) north of the level crossing on the K 1353 county road (Kreisstraße) (Sorge – Elend section) with the railway line of the Trans-Harz Railway.

The Harz (German: [haːɐ̯ts] ) is a highland area in northern Germany. It has the highest elevations for that region, and its rugged terrain extends across parts of Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia.

The name Hercynia derives from a Celtic name and could refer to other mountain forests, but has also been applied to the geology of the Harz. The Brocken is the highest summit in the Harz with an elevation of 1,141.1 metres (3,744 ft) above sea level. The Wurmberg (971 metres (3,186 ft)) is the highest peak located entirely within the state of Lower Saxony.

In the border museum, elements of the original East German border may be seen, including a section of border fence, the dog runs, parts of the signal fence and the patrol road made of concrete slabs, a watchtower (a so-called B Tower) and an East German border post. Immediately on the state border between Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony is the "Ring of Commemoration" (Ring der Erinnerungen), which was created by the environmental and landscape artist, Herman Prigann, in the 1990s. Made of dead wood, the artist has created a large ring based on the concept of a witches' circle. Many birds roost in the dead hedge so formed. The museum is run by the society of the same name (Grenzmuseum Sorge) and, since 2006, has been checkpoint no. 46 in the system of checkpoints of the Harzer Wandernadel hiking network.
