Beautiful square, especially on Saturdays with the market.

For the past few years, it has been the rehearsal venue for the boys' band and for a very long time the home of the 3D Museum.

One of several beautiful and well-preserved old fountains

The Baldinger Tor (Balding Gate) in Nördlingen is one of the five historic city gates and was first mentioned in 1376. It secured the road toward Würzburg and Frankfurt am Main and was part of the medieval city fortifications. The outer gate was completed in 1406 by Master Wenceslaus, and a new structure was built in 1430 under the direction of the stonemason Conrad Stenglin. Originally, the gate complex resembled the Berger Tor: a rectangular main gate with an almost square outer gate. The tower was five stories high and supported a circular top with a gun parapet and a tent roof. The gate was damaged during the Thirty Years' War, and in 1703 the tower unexpectedly collapsed – presumably due to inadequate repairs. Five people were killed.

The "Daniel" church tower of St. George's Church in Nördlingen is the town's most visible landmark and a masterpiece of late Gothic architecture. At 90 meters high, the tower rises above the town's rooftops and offers a spectacular panoramic view of the Nördlinger Ries region – on a clear day, up to 99 church towers can be seen. Construction began in 1454 and was completed in 1490 with a temporary roof. After a lightning strike in 1537, the tower received its characteristic Italian dome. Originally known as the "Wendelstein," it was renamed "Daniel" in the 19th century – an allusion to the biblical figure Daniel, who was elevated to the rank of prince. The Daniel tower is particularly vividly brought to life by a centuries-old tradition: Every evening between 10 p.m. and midnight, the watchman calls out "So G'sell, so!" from the tower room. – a greeting that dates back to a legend from 1440 in which a runaway sow helped uncover a treason and save the city from an attack. Those who climb the more than 350 steps to the viewing platform will be rewarded not only with an impressive panorama but also with a sense of the history and soul of this unique city.

The Deininger Gate is one of Nördlingen's historic city gates and a striking example of late medieval defensive architecture. It once served as an architectural model for the neighboring Löpsinger Gate and is notable for its slender construction and curved roof. Unlike the city's other gate towers, the Deininger Gate lacked a gun platform, making it particularly vulnerable to enemy attacks. A memorial plaque commemorates the dramatic events of 1634, when imperial soldiers entered the tower during the Battle of Nördlingen. The defenders were only able to expel them by setting fire to the tower itself. The current structure, with its twelve round-arched windows, dates from the final years of the Thirty Years' War, around 1645/1646. The gate is an impressive testament to Nördlingen's eventful history and a popular stop on the historical city tour.
