Bundesstraße 204

The Bundesstraße 204 is a former German federal road or Bundesstraße and was the major northwest–southeast link between Heide, Albersdorf, Hanerau-Hademarschen, Schenefeld and Itzehoe in the western part of the state of Schleswig-Holstein. The road was completely downgraded due to the construction of the A 23 motorway.
