    The Bickentor in Villingen is one of the three surviving gates that surround the town center of Villingen (the Riettor is opposite). The Bickentor was built around 1260 and is around 18 meters high. The monastery chapel of St. Ursula is attached to the Bickentor.

        Bickentor: Built in 1260, the Bickentor is one of the city's first gate towers. It is 18 meters high and features a red clock face. In 1782, it became an Ursuline convent with a girls' school. To this day, it serves as a grammar school and secondary school.
