    Hiking

    As part of the ensemble on Paradeplatz, the Hauptwache is one of the most valuable places in Schleswig-Holstein from a historical, urban and architectural point of view.
    Built between 1690 and 1700, the buildings have been registered in the state's monument register since 1968.
    In its original function, the main guard housed guards and, if available, prisoners. Uwe-Jens-Lornsen, a member of the Schleswig-Holstein unity movement, was also imprisoned here.
    The Hauptwache is still in its original location today - only its function has changed.

    The former main guard was built by the master builder Dominico Pelli (1657 - 1728) in 1692. In 1848, the fortress of Rendsburg was handed over to the Schleswig-Holsteiners without a fight in front of the main guard.
    In 1864, five detention cells were built into the Hauptwache.
