Narrow point of the Steinach river. The current is slowed here by large stones. This was necessary due to the straightening of the river at this location.

Here you can immediately see that this used to be a railway line.

The Judentor (Jew's Gate) is one of three surviving city gates in Coburg. The gate tower marked the western boundary of the city center and was part of the inner city wall. The city gate, probably built in the early 13th century, was first documented in 1321 as the Judentor (Jew's Gate). The gate tower was built on the floodplain of the Itz River. The name Judentor (Jew's Gate) refers to the Jewish community of Coburg, which was located west of the Judentor in the 14th and 15th centuries.
