    The Judentor (Jewish Gate) in Coburg is one of the city's three surviving city gates. It was built in the early 13th century and first documented in 1321 as the "Judentor" (Jewish Gate). The name derives from Coburg's Jewish community, which was located west of the gate in the 14th and 15th centuries. The alley leading from the market to the Judentor (Jewish Gate) was referred to as "Judengasse" (Juden Lane) in the Coburg town register in 1394.
    The Judentor once secured the western entrance to the inner city wall. Over the centuries, it underwent structural changes; for example, in 1721, it received a curved, slated dome with a lantern. In 1858, the outer gate was demolished. During the Nazi era, the Judentor was renamed "Markttor" (Market Gate) in 1938, but after 1945, it regained its original name.
    Today, the Judentor is an important historical monument in Coburg and commemorates the long history of the Jewish community in the city.
