Town walls of Freyburg

The medieval fortification encircles the town center of Freyburg with stone walls featuring multiple gates and defensive structures along its perimeter.

Built during the late Middle Ages, these walls protected the settlement that developed around Neuenburg Castle and controlled trade routes along the Unstrut River.

The walls represent medieval German architecture and engineering, demonstrating the construction methods and defensive strategies of the period.

Visitors can access the walls through the Eckstädter Tor entrance and walk sections of the fortification to view both the town and surrounding landscapes.

The walls maintain their original structure near the market square, offering a direct connection to the architectural planning of High Medieval German settlements.
