Osterburg, Hanseatic city in Stendal District, Germany.
The urban center of Osterburg contains numerous half-timbered buildings that line the streets, creating a traditional German architectural landscape within its old town district.
Founded in the 10th century and joining the Hanseatic League in 1359, Osterburg developed as a trading center with approximately 1,500 residents by the late Middle Ages.
The Saint Nikolai Church, transformed from Romanesque to Gothic style, features a bronze baptismal font from 1442 and an organ from 1824.
The town consists of eleven municipal divisions, including Ballerstedt, Düsedau, Erxleben, and Flessau, which merged with Osterburg in July 2009.
The Neptune Fountain, created in Italy during the early 1900s, stands in front of Saint Nikolai Church after being relocated from Rönnebeck Castle in 1947.
