The city wall of the city of Nördlingen is one of the most outstanding monuments in Germany, as it is the only building of this kind on which the visitor can walk around the old town without having to leave the wall ring.

Hiking

If you want to walk around the city on the city wall, you will find the stairs at one of the gates. On top of the preserved city wall from 1327, an approximately 2.7 km long circular path leads around the old town of Nördlingen. The city gates are named after the places outside the city. The towns of Baldingen, Löpsingen, Deiningen and Reimlingen have given four gates their names. Only the fifth, the Berger Tor, is not named after a place, but after a mountain, the Friedhofsberg.

Hiking

In any weather, a tour of the city wall is possible. The almost completely continuous roofing has shade in the summer and when it rains you will not get wet.
