        The East Gate of the Domberg in Freising, also known as the Agilolfingertor, is a historical building from the late Middle Ages. It was built in 1479/80 as part of the renovation of the Domberg fortifications and served as the eastern entrance to the Domberg. The gate tower is characterized by its crenellated gable and is a striking example of the region's medieval architecture.

        Today the tower is used by the student fraternity Agilolfia Freising, which uses the rooms for meetings and events.

        The East Gate is one of the few remaining gates of the former city fortifications and is a listed building. It is an important testimony to Freising's city history and a popular photo opportunity for visitors.

        A walk through the East Gate leads directly to the Domberg, where the Freising Cathedral and other historical buildings are located. Access via the East Gate offers a picturesque introduction to exploring the Domberg and the old town of Freising.
