Walk along the defending wall with views of the castle Wernigerode.
The path to the castle now leads past the Beautiful Corner up the castle hill, accompanying the restored city wall for a stretch. In 1279, the city wall with walkway enclosed the then city with the new town. The preserved half-shell tower also served as one of 30 wall towers for defense, just like the moat, which became a green area. The half-shell tower remained open on the inner side, so that the enemy could not entrench themselves here, should they overcome the wall.
