I suppose by Mauerkrone you mean the topmost layer that protrudes a bit, right? It was cast like that back then, but I wanted to remove the part that sticks out with a large angle grinder.

Hm... it obviously depends on what you want or how much effort you want to put into it. For me, the effort of grinding away 12m of concrete with an angle grinder etc. would definitely be too much, hence my idea. You take battens or 6x4 timber or wood of similar thickness as a substructure, so that the later cladding with rhombus slats (or battens/boards... depending on taste) will cover this protrusion; then you won’t see it anymore because it disappears behind the cladding. Likewise, I would possibly lay wood on top, e.g. either large, rough-sawn construction boards (possibly pressure-treated) or decking boards. Then you can sit on it and in my opinion it looks good. If you want to cover this 12m long wall with natural stone or something similar, that will be very expensive unnecessarily and not necessarily nicer. If one part turns out ugly, you just replace it with 1-2 screws. Of course, you could also take colored concrete slabs but they would have to have the right depth and usually don’t look very nice from the front. Or you make the wood a bit higher at the front and plant something nice behind it with cheap, wide plant containers (cheap flower troughs, wide cement buckets from the hardware store etc.) which you then won’t see because of the raised cladding. As you say, you can then hang plant containers as you wish or screw them on anywhere you like. For support, for example, you could divide the wall and simply clad it vertically 3-4 times or directly screw square plant troughs or metal brackets etc. to the wall, on which your plants can stand. I might even put taller troughs (very stylish e.g. also corten steel) on the ground, against the wall, and run the cladding against them. In the same way, you could also stack black planter stones/grid stones or similar and plant them... or place a fire bowl on top of each. There are no limits to romance there.I guess by Mauerkrone you mean the top layer that protrudes a bit, right?

Man is the architect of his own misfortune - I would consider that exemplary Schilda foolishness. After all, the crown at least protects your construction adhesive against water running directly from above behind it (?). :-(It was cast like that back then, but I wanted to cut off the part that sticks out with a big angle grinder.

Hmm.... of course it depends on what you want or what effort you want to put in for it. For me, the effort to work away a 12m strip of concrete etc. would definitely be too much, hence my idea.

Of course, you could also take colored concrete slabs but these would then have to have the appropriate depth and usually do not look very nice from the front. Or you raise the wood slightly higher at the front and plant something nice behind it with inexpensive, wide planter boxes (cheap flower troughs, wide cement buckets from the hardware store etc.) which you wouldn’t see because of the raised cladding.
You can, as you say, then hang planter boxes as desired or screw them on anywhere you like.
For the substructure you could, for example, divide the wall and simply clad it vertically 3-4 times or screw rectangular planter boxes or metal brackets etc. directly to the wall, on which your plants stand.
I might even place higher troughs (very stylish, for example, also Corten steel) on the ground, so against the wall, and then run the cladding against them. Likewise, you could stack black planter stones/grid stones or similar and plant them... or put a fire bowl on top. There are no limits to the romance there.
Okay, then I will take back a quarter Schilda and replace it with SisyphosMy idea was to remove the current overhang and then place a stone slab or something similar on top. This would then protect the underlying cladding (if there are any).
