There is a small town in Germany with a non-German name Porta Westfalica. It is located in the North Rhine-Westphalia land. Those who went by any train from Hannover to West Germany or from West Germany to Hannover pass this town. The ICE and IC trains don't stop here, but regional trains do. The place is very beautiful and in any case you can see it from the window. interesting old postcard depicting the place.
