Festungswall Meppen

Welcome to Festungswall Meppen

In 1360, Meppen was elevated to the status of a town and granted the "right to fortify with ramparts and ditches". The fortifications built as a result survived for centuries, having been extended and rebuilt several times to meet the needs of the time. The last star-shaped bastion fortress can still be seen around the old town today.
While the defensive wall was razed in 1762, the former counter-wall, the so-called "Contrescarpe", with its centuries-old trees originally preserved as flood protection, is now a listed building and invites you to take a stroll through the town center.
