City walls of Neubrandenburg

The city walls of Neubrandenburg form a complete ring around the old town center, featuring four large gates and numerous watchtowers constructed in red brick.

Built during the 13th century, these defensive walls protected the Hanseatic city from invasions and remained intact through centuries of regional conflicts and wars.

The walls incorporate Gothic architectural elements characteristic of northern German medieval military construction, displaying the region's mastery of brick craftsmanship.

Visitors can access the walls through designated entry points and follow marked paths that connect the four main gates and preserved defensive towers.

The walls contain the Friedländer Gate, which houses the Regional Museum, allowing visitors to explore local history within the medieval structure itself.
