Nammer Lager, Archaeological site in Porta Westfalica, Germany.
The fortification spans 25 hectares at an elevation of 235 meters, featuring double walls, ditches, and natural cliff defenses on its southern border.
Eduard Braun discovered this Iron Age fortification in 1897, followed by Friedrich Langewiesche's investigation of the ring wall system in the early 1900s.
The settlement contains artifacts from the La Tène period, including stone tools and remnants of ancient Germanic defensive structures from 300 to 100 BC.
Visitors can explore the archaeological site through marked hiking trails, with informational signs explaining the historical significance of different sections.
The fort belongs to a network of five ring fortifications stretching from Wiehengebirge to Süntel, marking strategic points along historical trade routes.
