      The Berger Tor secured the road to Ulm.
      A predecessor building was not on today's place, but on the wine market. The present Berger Tor was already built in 1362, but the gate tower had to be rebuilt in 1435/36, because he no longer met the defense requirements. After the loss of imperial freedom in 1803, the entrenchments at Nördlingen began to be dragged outside the gates, the ditches were to be drained and auctioned off to private individuals.
