Schwedenschanze, Archaeological fortress in Stralsund, Germany.
The Schwedenschanze fortress consists of earthwork fortifications with defensive ramparts positioned strategically within the landscape of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The fortification system was constructed by Prussian military forces approximately 150 years ago to strengthen the defensive capabilities of Stralsund against potential invasions.
The preservation of Schwedenschanze enables researchers and visitors to examine historical military engineering techniques and regional defense strategies of northern Germany.
Visitors can locate the fortress using its coordinates of 54.3332 latitude and 13.0785 longitude, with access available through designated pathways.
The name Schwedenschanze represents a category of fortifications that were initially misidentified as Swedish constructions during the Thirty Years' War period.
