The residents' growing need for protection found expression in the fortification of the place. Originally there were 4 city gates: the Münstertor was built in 1437, followed in 1468 by the Hammer Tor. In 1595 the fortifications were strengthened. Despite the chaos of war in the late 16th and 17th centuries, there was a lot of construction and renovation activity in Drensteinfurt. The oldest and most important architectural monuments date from this period.
