Klingentor

Klingentor is one of Rothenburg ob der Tauber’s most distinctive medieval gate towers, marking the eastern edge of the old town walls. Built in the 14th century and later combined with a bastion and water tower, it reflects the town’s strong historic defenses. Its stout stone architecture and well-preserved setting make it a rewarding stop for visitors interested in medieval town planning and fortifications. If you plan to walk the old walls or explore quieter corners beyond the main square, Klingentor is a worthwhile detour.
