    Because of the city walls, you shouldn't forget to explore the old town. There's a lot to see there.

      Part of the old city fortifications.

        In 1252 Northeim received the right to build a city fortification from Otto the Child. The construction of the city wall with a length of 1750 was completed in 1305. A 9-month siege by the general Tilly in the years 1627-1629, a famine and the plague forced the Northeimers to surrender. The city wall was removed in the amount (ground), so that today still 880 m in the honed height can be seen. In the wall at Medenheimer Platz gapes a hole that the vernacular calls "Tilly hole".
