    The lower gate, in which the city prison was temporarily housed on two levels in four dungeon cells, once resembled the upper gate, like the latter it had a multi-storey structure, but no hood with a clock, but a simple, laterally cranked roof. The drawing (left) was made in 1788 when the prison in the tower was built.

    In the course of his life, the dimensions of the gate no longer corresponded to the larger carts of increasing trade. Cars often had to be unloaded, sometimes cobblestones had to be removed to allow passage.

    The former city prison was located at the Lower Gate.
    The gate was demolished in 1839. By order of the Bavarian state government under King Ludwig I, it was rebuilt in its current form. An early example of Bavarian monument preservation👍🏼

    This is basically where the old town of Obernburg ends.
