The Neutor is one of the outer fortifications of the Marienberg Fortress.
The gate passage of the new gate is slightly curved in order to avoid a direct shooting through. The loopholes are laid out in such a way that there would have been no cover for advancing enemies anywhere. The gate guards of the New Gate were probably often bored and for this reason left scribbled letters on the gate walls. Deep grooves made by the guards can also be seen on the innermost loopholes: This is where they put the finishing touches to their halberds (spear, thrust weapon).
The openings in the roof vault were used for ventilation and ensured that the powder vapor could quickly escape.

Käppele Pilgrimage Church (Würzburg)

Highlight • Religious Site

Beautiful church worth visiting. Already on the way up there are several stations that show the way of the cross. Once at the top you can not only look at the really pretty church from the outside but also from the inside and also enjoy the beautiful view of Würzburg.

View of Marienberg Fortress

Highlight • Viewpoint

Marienberg Fortress rises above the old town and the Main. The ascent (approx. 100 meters in altitude) is rewarded with an enchanting view
