Schloßberg was a castle and Benedictine monastery hill built by the Emperor Lothar III around 1136 near Chemnitz. The monastery existed almost 400 years and was rebuilt many times. The last Gothic appearance was built between 1488 and 1522. Around the 1540 Benedictines left the site which fell to the Saxon Electors. The building was used as an administration and hunting lodge.In 1931 the new city museum was opened.
The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.
Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
