Here, too, a mighty structure - in the middle of a gate leads through. On the outside, both the Bavarian King Ludwig I and the builder of the fortress Colonel Friedrich Ritter are depicted in armor. In the building is the city and fortress museum.

There were originally two entrances to the city, namely the Ludwigstor (originally German Thor) in the northwest and the Weißenburger Tor (originally French Thor) in the east.
