To make a day of it
Burgwall Garzin stands in Garzin (Landkreis Märkisch-Oderland), in Brandenburg, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
The Burgwall Garzin marks the site of a former Slavic ring fortification, now surviving only as earthworks on a narrow spur beside the Haussee near Garzin. A circular rampart about 20 metres across can still be made out beneath the woodland that has grown over the site within a park. Finds on the ground point to Slavic occupation followed by early German reuse of the stronghold, though no written record ever mentions a fortress here.
