The Deininger Gate looks somewhat similar to the Löpsinger Gate.

How nice!
All the old half-timbered houses surrounded by the city wall.
It's all worth a visit!

The second round on the almost completely walk-on battlements impresses again and again with views of the tangled roofs of the city .... the "Daniel", the steeple of the mighty St. George's Church, towers over the city and always attracts everyone's attention.

Nice walk around the Nördlingen city wall. The wall is mostly covered, which makes it fun even in bad weather. It feels like you're just walking straight ahead the whole time. You don't notice that you're walking in circles... :)

At the Löpsinger Tor there is a museum on various levels in the tower for a 3€ entrance fee.

Nördlingen was formerly a free imperial city with a historic city center and a well-preserved, walkable city wall.
You can't really get lost, take one of the many stairs and then go around the outside once.
