Rothenburg gate tower (around 1390), stepped gable on the city side decorated with pilaster strips. The pitch holes in the gateway and the porch (so-called barbicans, 16th century) with its oriels are evidence of Dinkelbühl's defensive strength.
If you drive into Dinkelsbühl, the Rothenburger Weiher is in front of the gate.
