==Dutch-German border== One street in Dinxperlo, ''Heelweg'', is partly German in the village of [[Suderwick]], ([[Borken (district)|district Borken]]). The road itself lies in the Netherlands, but one side of the housing zone is in Germany (where it is called ''Hellweg'').<ref>{{cite web|title=Dinxperlo (NL) / Suderwick (D)|url=http://www.grenzen.150m.com/dinxperloGB.htm|website=grenzen.150m.com|access-date=7 September 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141010224931/http://www.grenzen.150m.com/dinxperloGB.htm|archive-date=10 October 2014}}</ref> The unique boundary line is delimited by a treaty between Germany and the Netherlands signed in April 1960, which resulted in the return of Suderwick to then West Germany on 1 August 1963 after the Netherlands [[Dutch annexation of German territory after the Second World War|annexed]] the village soon after the Second World War as part of claims for war reparations. The treaty also provides for the access arrangements of those living in German territory but with only access via Heelweg which is Dutch territory.<ref>{{Citation | title = Treaty Between The Kingdom Of The Netherlands And The Federal Republic Of Germany Concerning The Course Of The Common Frontier, The Boundary Waters, Real Property Situated Near The Frontier, Traffic Crossing The Frontier On Land And Via Inland Waters, And Other Frontier Questions | date = 8 April 1960 | url = https://treaties.un.org/doc/publication/unts/volume%20508/v508.pdf | access-date = 25 October 2019}}</ref> The houses there belong to the small town of [[Suderwick]], which might be translated as "southern area". Also, Dinxperlo houses a shared Dutch-German [[police station]]. Besides [[Dutch language|Dutch]] and [[German language|German]], at both sides of the border a common dialect is spoken, which is a variety of [[West Low German|Low Saxon]].
