The Grand Prix Union Dortmund was a German cycling race organized for the last time in 1984.[1]
The course was between 130 and 172 km, with Dortmund as both start and finish place.[2]
The competition's roll of honor includes the successes of Eddy Merckx, Hennie Kuiper and Patrick Sercu.[3] Merckx won two editions and finished two times as third.
Only two German riders, Rudi Altig and Dietrich Thurau, managed to win the race. For a few years, a parallel race for amateurs was also organized.
