🛡️ The Altenberg Landwehr is a fascinating archaeological monument that still makes the medieval border fortifications of the Münsterland region visible in the landscape.
The Landwehr was first mentioned in 1395. It served as a border fortification for the parish of Altenberge at the behest of the Bishop of Münster. It was not a military defense line against armies, but rather a protection against cattle rustling and smuggling, and a means of controlling trade.
