    Hiking

    A then 1.7 km long city wall from the 13th century, in combination with a rampart and ramparts, protected the settlement from enemy attacks. The city wall was extensively renovated from 1988 to 1995. The Westerturm, a former city gate and the landmark of the city of Duderstadt, is part of the "city wall" structure.

    Originally built as a city gate, the Westerturm, along with its watchtowers, rampart, and wall, is part of the town's sophisticated medieval fortification system. The lovingly restored town wall with its battlements and towers provides a vivid impression of bygone days.

    No matter from which direction you approach Duderstadt, your gaze is always captivated by the tower with its spire, whose elegant left-hand twist is striking. There are quite a number of twisted towers in German-speaking areas, but none whose twist exhibits such harmonious lines as Duderstadt's Westerturm.
