Cultural heritage D-3-6539-0197 in Altendorf, Archaeological heritage site in Altendorf, Germany.
The archaeological site D-3-6539-0197 is the remains of a medieval fortified structure in Altendorf, located near Oberer Markt. The ground monuments show the foundation layouts and structures of this former defensive installation that once protected settlements in the region.
This fortified installation arose in the Middle Ages as a defensive structure for surrounding settlements in the Schwandorf area. The installation was abandoned over time but left measurable traces in the ground that archaeologists document today.
The remains show how people lived here in medieval times and what structures they built for protection. At this location, visitors can directly understand how a small fortification fit into the Upper Palatinate landscape.
The site can be reached by road near Altendorf town center, directly at Oberer Markt. Visitors should remember that this is an archaeological site where the foundations lie underground and are not visible.
Although the structure lies hidden underground, this type of fortified installation was very common in the Upper Palatinate and shaped the defense strategy of entire regions. Such sites are now protected ground monuments that help us understand medieval settlement and power structures.
