[[File:All Walls.png|thumb|All walls.]]
A '''wall''' is a decorative [[block]]. Like [[fence]]s, they can be used to create boundaries, because players and most [[mob]]s cannot climb or jump over them.

== Variants ==
There are 26 variants of walls:

== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
All walls have the same crafting recipe shape, with six blocks of the same type resulting in six walls of the same type.

=== Stonecutting ===
All walls can be obtained by stonecutting. As with crafting, each used block results in one crafted wall.

== Usage ==
[[File:FloatingRabbit.png|thumb|right|Due to the wall's hitboxes being 1.5 blocks tall for mobs, this [[rabbit]] could be seen "floating".]]
Walls are one and a half [[block]]s tall for [[player]] or [[mob]] collisions, and one block tall for all other purposes, similar to [[fence]]s. This prevents [[player]]s and mobs from jumping over them, while using only one actual block space. A wall occupies the center space of blocks. A wall block automatically connects to any adjacent connectable block surface, [[iron bars]] or [[glass pane]], and its top rises slightly to support any block immediately above, covering the area on its top from the four pixels at the center to the side on which the top rises.

Wall blocks are more efficient at fencing off mobs than a two-block high wall of regular blocks, costing half as many blocks, and being more space-efficient as well. However, a [[skeleton]] might shoot over the wall, a [[creeper]] could explode if a player is standing near the wall, a [[spider]] could still climb over the wall, and a [[camel]] can walk over the wall.

Unlike fences, if two walls are placed one block apart diagonally, the player cannot walk between them.

A wall block always has a center post if covered by a [[banner]], a [[pressure plate]], a ground [[torch]], [[soul torch]] or [[redstone torch]], a [[sign]], [[tripwire]], another wall block with a center post, or any block ''covering the four pixels at the center on its top'' without ''making the wall block rise its top on any two opposite sides''.<ref>https://joakimthorsen.github.io/MCPropertyEncyclopedia/?selection=variants,tag_wall_post_override&filter=(tag_wall_post_override:No)</ref> Otherwise, only walls connecting to ''only two opposite sides'' or ''all four sides'' have no center post. Without center posts, walls connect to other walls to create a large, flat wall. They also connect horizontally to [[iron bars]] and [[glass pane]]s. However, they do not connect to [[fence]]s ([[fence gate]]s can be connected though).<ref>{{bug|MC-179830|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Note blocks ===
Walls can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sounds.

=== Leads ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, like fences, walls can be used to attach mobs with a [[lead]].

=== Redstone ===
Walls can be used to give block updates ({{in|je}} post placement updates) to other walls under it when connected to another block, the walls under the connected wall will change the block state that controls the center post to the same state as the wall above if the wall above makes the wall below rise its top on any two opposite sides, which can be detected by an observer, this sort of redstone is called wallstone.
