Review & FAQ:
Referred to in English as the Red Gate, Rotes Tor is a well-preserved gate that was originally built to secure the city from traffic coming from the south. The gate dates back to medieval times, and for hundreds of years, it served as a customs station on the road from Italy. In modern times, however, it's a beautiful tourist attraction with a large park at its base. A medieval festival is held at the base of the gate in the summer months, and there is also an open-air stage here that hosts operas, musicals, and concerts in June and July.
