    The ramparts were built in 1270 for city defense. The former 3 km long city wall with many towers and Wiek houses and 22 gates at very different heights (30 m) was later redesigned into a park.
    Ponds, fountains, "The Drinking" statue, bronze sculptures and an obelisk can be discovered in the park today. An open door in the city wall invites you to visit the monastery "Zum Heiligen Kreuz".
    At 450 meters, the longest section of the city wall stretches from the Kröpeliner Tor to Schwaanschen Straße.

    The city wall is well preserved and the rampart is a green area in the middle of the city.
