    Werther Tor is one of the four remaining city gates. It is used by one of the local clubs as a meeting room and unfortunately can not be visited from the inside.

      Very nice city gate of Bad Münstereifel.
      As the youngest of the four city gates, the Werther Gate was rebuilt in 1416. The predecessor was undermined by the flood disaster of July 1416 and collapsed.
      The new building, which was carried out to the north in the direction of Cologne, therefore also received the flank towers called Jülich shells; at that time the latest craze in fastening technology.
      The gate is named after a vicus Werthe, a submerged Franconian settlement.

        The Werther Tor is one of the 4 gates to the city near the train station. It is the youngest goal after the devastating flood disaster in BC. 1416 was rebuilt because it collapsed due to the undermining. From here you can get to the beautiful historic town centre.
