unwalled

Lacking defensive barriers

Unwalled means lacking walls or fortifications.

An unwalled city has no defensive barriers; an unwalled garden lies open to its surroundings.

The word often carries connotations of vulnerability or accessibility: The unwalled town was defenseless against raiders.

Figuratively, it can describe openness or lack of barriers: an unwalled heart, unwalled borders.
