Transcript:

In the very heart of Europe, there is a place that is almost impossible to get to from within its country.
You see, the border between Germany and Austria seem pretty normal, but if we zoom in a little we see that this part of Austria which seem to be completely inside Germany. This is Jungholz, an Austrian ski village which is connected by the rest of Austria by a single point which is not that easy to get to because is the summit of the mountain Sorgschrofen. This single-point connection makes the village a pene-exclave of Austria.
The lack of a road connection to anywhere else in Austria People in this village go to school in Germany, as it is more convenient. Also the nearest hospital is also in Germany.
Does any of you know why this pene-exclave exist? Let me know in the comments.
