The terms landwehr ("land defence"), landgraben ("land ditch") and landhege ("land enclosure") refer to border demarcations or border defences and enclosures in Central Europe that were either built by settlements with the right of enclosure or to mark and defend entire territories. These measures, usually comprising earthworks or dykes as well as ditches and impenetrable lines of hedging, for protecting towns and villages date mainly to the High and Late Middle Ages and consist, in some cases, of systems over a hundred kilometres long. Comparable earthworks have been recorded since Antiquity. The Roman limes are the best known examples of earlier landwehrs. The Danewerk is another example of this type of barrier.

  • Een landweer of landgraaf is een lijnvormige doorgaande aarden en of diepe sloot met vaak een doornenhaag. De uitvoering is afhankelijk van het doel en de terreingesteldheid. Bij de doorgangen was dikwijls een tol en waren extra verdedigingswerken aangelegd. Een landweer diende ter bescherming van een landstreek of stadsgebied tegen vijandige invloeden van buiten. (nl)

  • Mit Landwehr, Landgraben und Landhege werden Grenzmarkierungs- bzw. Grenzsicherungswerke und Umfriedungen von Siedlungsgebieten mit dem Recht der Einhegung oder ganzen Territorien bezeichnet. Diese Siedlungsschutzanlagen werden zumeist ins Hoch- und Spätmittelalter datiert und besitzen in Einzelfällen Längen von über hundert Kilometer. Vergleichbare Erdwerke werden jedoch bereits seit der Antike erwähnt. Der römische Limes ist die bekannteste Ausführung einer frühen Landwehr. Auch das Danewerk gehört zu dieser Gruppe von Sperrwerken. (de)
