Cobblestone walls can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, they drop nothing.

Natural generation

Cobblestone walls generate in woodland mansions. They also generate in pillager outpost towers, abandoned camps​[upcoming: Third Drop 2026], and in some houses in plains, taiga, and snowy tundra villages. They can also generate in snowy taiga villages in Bedrock Edition.
