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.

Route

The former B 204 begins in the eastern part of Heide at an intersection with the B 203. The route goes southeast through the towns of Nordhastedt and Albersdorf. Then it crosses the Kiel Canal at the Grünenthal High Bridge. Afterwards passes the towns of Hanerau-Hademarschen, Gokels, Warringholz and Schenefeld where it had connections with the B 430. Then it continues straight to the city of Itzehoe where it reached the B 5 and the B 206.[1] The section between Heide and Gokels was downgraded to the L 316. The section between Gokels and Itzehoe-Edendorf was downgraded to the L 127. The section between IZ-Edendorf and the B 5 was upgraded to the A 23 motorway.[2]
