Hiking

In Würzburg, "Porta lignorum" refers to a historic city gate. There is a connection to today's Mühltor (Mill Gate). The Mühltor was also referred to as the "Holztor" (Wood Gate) in historical sources. There is evidence that timber tolls were collected at this gate.

Hiking

In front of the historic wooden gate, built in 1280, on the Mainkai, there was once a landing place for firewood and the Würzburg timber market.
