    The Ulmer Tor in Biberach is a remnant of the city wall, as are some of the buildings on the Gigelberg. It is the only preserved city gate of that time. In 1803 and in the following decades, the city wall was largely torn down, as the customs union and thus also the levying of a duty on the city wall no longer existed.

    History of the Ulmer Tor in Biberach an der Riss

    The Ulmer Tor was built in the 14th century. At that time they wanted to expand the city, this required a new tower. The name of the tower was also chosen here because of the direction. The Ulmer Tor was at the northern end of the city of Biberach in the Middle Ages.
    The gate was first mentioned in a document in 1365. In 1820 the gate, which is now a tower, was fitted with a free-standing belfry. This bell was called “Gausappel” by the locals. The reason for this is that the bell was the signal in the evening to bring in the geese.
