Knieperwall

18435 Stralsund

Large parts of the 700-year-old town wall are still preserved and have been continuously restored over the last few decades. Compared to other medieval towns, Stralsund still has large sections of the town wall. In the 13th century, the fortifications still consisted of piles. However, it was quickly replaced by a stone wall with towers and battlements in the 14th century. The section of the town wall between the former Hospitaler Tor gate and the Kütertor gate, which still exists today, was restored in the 1960s. The battlement walkways and the Wiekhäuser are also still preserved here. Two of the former ten gates still exist - the Kniepertor, mentioned in a document as early as 1293 and now used as an original dwelling, and the aforementioned Kütertor. The latter was built in 1446 and is sparsely structured with blinds on both sides. A tent roof with a lantern and steep helmet forms the end.

Stralsund city wall - 700 years of city history up close

The Stralsund city wall is one of the most impressive medieval fortifications on the German Baltic coast. Compared to many other historic towns in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, exceptionally large parts of the complex are still preserved here - a rare testimony to North German town history from the Middle Ages.

From the pile fortifications to the stone city wall

In the 13th century, the fortifications initially consisted of simple pile work. As early as the 14th century, it was replaced by a solid stone wall with towers and battlements. Of the ten town gates that once existed, two have survived the centuries: the Kniepertor, mentioned in a document as early as 1293 and now used as living space, and the Kütertor, built in 1446, with its striking tent roof, lantern and steep helmet.

Restored battlements and weigh houses in Stralsund

The section of wall between the former Hospitaler Tor and Kütertor was extensively restored in the 1960s. The battlements and battlement houses are also still preserved in this area and make the historical character of the complex particularly easy to experience. Anyone visiting the Hanseatic city of Stralsund should also plan a longer stay at the Baltic Sea in nearby regions such as Rügen or Fischland-Darß-Zingst.
