Kobolzeller Tor

Kobolzeller Tor in Rothenburg ob der Tauber

The structures at the Konolzeller Tor are not as elaborated as at the other gates but it is possible to access the sentry walk here and see how the defenses worked — this smaller bastion had its own inner courtyard and four gates. The steep slope inside the courtyard made an attack difficult with defenses possible from the devil’s chancel above, as well as from the Kohlturm tower.
