The fortress "Bärenkasten" (Bardyn Castrum) from the 14th century once stood for customs control on an island on the Oder in front of the town of Oderberg. However, the island silted up in the 18th century due to the regulation of the Oder. Today only remains of the fort wall can be seen, surrounded by an allotment garden in the middle of today's Oderberg.

The Slavs had already built a refuge at this point.

The Oderberg Fortress, originally Bardyn Castrum, also popularly known as Bärenkasten Fortress, originally stood on an Oder island in front of today's town of Oderberg. After the regulation of the Oder in the 18th century, the island silted up. Today the remains of the fortress can be found in an allotment garden in the middle of the city.
