Actually, this is a false friend. A Burg is a considerably smaller
fortification than a fortress (Festung in German) and in modern language it is
never used for a walled town.
This shows that you have been mislead by the use of German terms and are rather
illustrating my point.
Yet again, I suggest that general, descriptive Tags and a definition in the
wiki can do better.
