Boundary stone between the Free City of Danzig and Germany, in its original location near the Przebrno (Pröbbernau) border crossing: D - Deutschland, FD - Freie Stadt Danzig). The border existed 24.12.1920 – 1.9.1939 and was marked by 17 such stones across the Vistula Spit.

Przebrno is a village on the Vistula Spit in northern Poland. Since 1991 it is part of the town (urban gmina) of Krynica Morska. Previously it was part of Gmina Sztutowo.^[1]

The village has sandy beaches on the shores of the Bay of Gdańsk on the northern side of the spit, and the Vistula Lagoon on the southern side.

Before 1793 the area was part of Kingdom of Poland, 1793–1945 Prussia and Germany. For the history of the region, see History of Pomerania. During the Second World War it was the location of the German concentration camp Pröbernau, a subcamp of the German concentration camp Stutthof.

As of 2020, the Vistula Spit canal is under construction between Przebrno and Skowronki.
