    The Tiedexer Tor was one of five city gates, which secured the main roads of the city as early as 1300 with the completion of the approx. 2200m long city wall. These were representative entrances, which symbolized the urban self-confidence and freedom. Here access to the city was controlled and taxes, duties and charges were collected. The gate was named after the nearby village of Ti (e) dexen in the west of the city, which had fallen into desolation as early as the 14th century due to city migration. From the military fortifications of the Tiedex Gate, the remains of a gun emplacement (upper cat) are still preserved. The main gate was demolished during the Napoleonic occupation in 1813. The southern gatehouse was preserved and was used as a residential building. A breakthrough was made through its ground floor in 1964, through which the footpath to Tiedexer Straße was laid. When entering the city center, the visitor has a wonderful view of the historic streets of Tiedexer Strasse.
