Nuremberg is the only major German city surrounded by a city wall that has survived to this day. This fortification is one of the three most massive medieval city walls in Europe—approximately 3.5 kilometers long, up to 5 meters thick in places, an average height of 7-8 meters, seven gates, and a total of 71 wall towers.
