The "Heidenwall" near Delthun is a typical north-west German ring wall. It was used from around the 9th century until the high Middle Ages. The approximately 4 m high "Heidenwall" was probably built as a wood-earth construction or as a double-shell plague wall with an earth core. Its entrance was probably in the northwest.

There is much to suggest that the “Heidenwall” served primarily as a refuge in which the surrounding population found refuge in the event of armed conflicts.

Location:
In the northern area of the street "Am Heidenwall" in Dehlthun. A dirt road leads to the forest near the ramparts.
