This is the old western tower gate of the city wall (circa 1300). It is located below the Merenburg. There are still many old and beautiful half-timbered houses in the immediate vicinity.
The half-timbering seen on the gate looking out was added in the 17th century.

You have to be a bit careful here, most of the paths are one-way streets.
Unfortunately, the tower is currently under 'inspection'.
