Hiking

Because fishermen used to be considered socially weaker, they did not want to be accepted into the city and were given their residential quarters in the Fischervorstadt am Senkelbach. Hence the gate that led into the fishing suburb got its name. Today the area around the Fischertor is noisy and busy.

There has been an entrance gate here since 1328. In 1453 a wooden bridge was added that reached over the moat. Beyond the gate was the fishing suburb on the Senkelbach, in which the socially disadvantaged class of fishermen lived.

There has been an entrance gate ("Thorlein") at this point since 1328. In 1453 a wooden bridge was added that reached over the city moat.[1] Beyond the gate was the fishing suburb on the Senkelbach, where the socially disadvantaged class of fishermen lived. In 1609 the Fischertor was renovated by the city master builder Elias Holl and two more floors were added. Despite this expansion, the Fischertor was more of a side entrance, since the Wertachbrucker Tor served as the main entrance.
