Hiking

A small wall and a gravel parking lot - it's hard to believe, but this is where life once pulsed. This is where the city gate stood, which in the Middle Ages limited the freedom of Lichtenberg fortress. It was built in the 14th century as part of the city wall and demolished in 1862.

Right next to the old city gate there is also a nice little fountain with fresh, flowing water.
