Medieval fortifications, started at the end of the 16th century.
Today forest promenade, as a local recreation area for the Duderstädter.

The wall, its surroundings and large areas of the city park are a valuable contribution to modern species protection.
Almost all children from Duderstadt's schools and day care centers learn something about the most important connections in the ecosystem.
In the 15th century, the earth wall was heaped up in front of Duderstadt's city wall. During the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) the ramparts were destroyed and only rebuilt from 1668. Around 1800 the wall lost its importance for city defense. Lime trees were first planted, followed by chestnut trees in the early 19th century. Even today, some giant trees date from the time of the first planting.

New weapon techniques made it necessary to expand the defense systems in the Middle Ages. Therefore, the city wall, which is still preserved today, was built around 1500. The main work on the 3,300 m long wall was supervised by the master builder Andreas (Anreischke). During the Thirty Years' War, the facilities were strengthened, later (1643) demolished at the request of the Swedes, and restored after another 25 years by order of the elector.
