Upper gate tower - Gredinger Tor, gate tower, second half of the 15th century, partially renovated in 1819 after a lightning strike, front gate on the field side.
Once you drive through the gate out of the old town, you have a beautiful view of the Danube Main Canal. The first view with the panorama is very impressive.

Berching, the gateway to the Altmühltal Nature Park, is located on the banks of the Main-Danube Canal and the historic Ludwig-Donau-Main Canal. In 1846, King Ludwig built the canal past Berching that was named after him and is still preserved today. Since 1992, Berching has been located directly on the Main-Danube Canal, the major European waterway that connects the North Sea with the Black Sea. The 500-year-old defensive wall with thirteen towers and four gates leads to a closed cityscape that is unique in Bavaria
