Historic Squares & Gates

Rothenburg ob der Tauber's medieval layout is defined by its central administrative hub and defensive perimeter.

The list also highlights the city's preserved fortifications, including the 14th-century Burgtorturm and the Siebersturm, which marks the southern entrance to the iconic Plönlein district.
