The 14th century seven-meter-high wall, with two gates: Myśliborska and Młyńska, as well as towers and gates, surrounded the entire city. Most of the defensive system was dismantled in the 19th century, and World War II only completed the destruction.
A little over 480 meters of the defensive wall have survived from the former fortifications to this day. Unfortunately, it is largely lowered compared to its original form. The longest but low section has been preserved behind the parish church in the eastern part of the city, while the best-preserved fragment can be seen at the intersection of Chmielna and Górna streets, where details of the wall crown and one of the bay towers have survived, as well as between Górna and Podwale streets. In addition, a short section of the stone part of the defensive wall is visible at Grodzka and Jeziorna streets, and the relics grouped in three places are located in the north-eastern part of the perimeter.

The city walls in Barlinek are one of the most valuable monuments of the city, dating back to the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. Once, their length exceeded 1,700 meters, and the defensive system was complemented by towers, a moat and earthen ramparts. A natural barrier protecting the city was also the nearby Lake Barlineckie. Today, fragments of the walls can be admired during a walk or a bike ride around the center of Barlinek. It is an interesting stop for lovers of history and atmospheric towns.

Beautiful remains of the city walls and a small park.
