Gransee, Medieval town center in Oberhavel District, Germany.
The municipality stretches across 121 square kilometers of Brandenburg terrain, featuring stone gates, medieval towers, and multiple public squares.
Founded in the 13th century, Gransee received town privileges in 1262 and maintained its original city wall fortifications through centuries.
The town hall square functions as a central meeting point where residents gather for weekly markets and regional festivities throughout the year.
Located 57 kilometers north of Berlin, Gransee connects to the capital through regular train services and the nearby B96 federal highway.
The Powder Tower, dating from 1316, remains standing as the last remaining defensive tower of the original medieval fortification system.
