    The Engelthal monastery wall is special because it was not customary to enclose monasteries by walls when the monastery was built. Some parts of this almost 1,100 meter long wall and two gates are still preserved. pages.et4.de/de/nuernberger-land/streaming/detail/POI/p_100049731/klostermauer-engelthal

    Hiking

    With a bit of leisure you can study this wall, why buildings become ruins over time (vegetation, weather, removal of building material) and how difficult it is to build such a wall, because in some places you can see the wall crown from above, including curbs and backfill.

    The monastery Engethal including the old monastery walls were extensively restored in the years 2008 - 2010.
