In the 19th century, all external gates of the city were cut off, except for the outer gate, after the wall had been removed at the end of the eighteenth century. And the trenches and ramparts gradually disappeared.

Hiking

In the 14th century, an outer city wall was built to protect Mühlhausen's suburbs. Of the three original gate towers, only the 15th-century tower of the outer Frauentor remains today.

Anyone entering the gate from the west has an impressive view of the city. The gate features late Gothic details, such as a barrel vault with decorated keystones. In addition, remnants such as a painted niche, arched windows, brackets for the gate, and traces of the portcullis are still visible on the outside.

To protect the Mühlhausen suburbs, an outer city fortification was built in the 14th century. Of the originally three high gate towers, only that of the outer Frauentor from the 15th century has been preserved.
