Münsterland - Baumberge - „Havixbecker Schnadgang – Die Landwehr zwischen den Kirchspielen Havixbeck und Tilbeck“

Am Tilbecker Mordkreuz stoßen wir auf ein bedeutendes mittelalterliches Bodendenkmal. Über 5 km verläuft von hier aus in nordwestlicher Richtung auf dem Baumbergkamm ein einzigartiges Kulturdenkmal, eine der am besten erhaltenen Grenzbefestigungsanlagen des Münsterlandes.
Diese Wallanlagen sind zur Verstärkung der Gemarkungsgrenzen errichtet worden; sie wurden als "lantwere" oder "munitio" bezeichnet. Erwies sich der Schutz der Kirchspielsgrenzen nicht ausreichend gesichert, hat man im Münsterland seit dem Mittelalter die natürlichen Grenzen durch "lebende" Schutzwälle und Gräben ergänzt.
