Branderburg Gord, Medieval fort in Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany
The Branderburg Gord stands on elevated terrain near the Havel River, featuring remnants of ancient Slavic defensive structures and earthworks.
The fortress served as a strategic outpost of the Stodoranie tribe until 929, when German King Henry the Fowler captured it after the Battle of Lenzen.
The settlement marked the intersection of Slavic and Germanic cultures, as evidenced by archaeological findings of pottery, weapons, and daily life artifacts.
The archaeological site contains interpretative signs and walking paths, allowing visitors to examine the medieval defensive system and settlement layout.
This fort represents one of the earliest documented settlements in the Brandenburg region, predating the establishment of the medieval German state.
