Jüterbog

Jüterbog is a town in the Teltow-Fläming district of Brandenburg, located at the northern edge of the Fläming hills. Three monastery complexes and three old city gates shape the townscape.

The settlement was first recorded in 1007 under the name Jutriboc. Archbishop Wichmann of Magdeburg granted it town privileges in 1174.

The church of St. Nikolai dominates the skyline with its tall tower and red brick walls, typical of medieval construction in this region. Visitors can walk inside and see the pointed arches and old windows that still shape the interior today.

The railway station in the center offers regular connections to Berlin and other cities in the region. The old city gates and monastery complexes can be easily explored on foot.

The medieval fortification wall still encloses the old core today and includes three gates with barbicans in their original form. These defenses are among the best preserved examples of their kind in the region.
