Marientor

Marientor Review

Naumburg was once ringed by a defensive city wall with five gates. The only remaining gate, the Marientor, is a rare surviving example of a dual-portal gate from the 14th century. The museum inside the gate provides a brief history of the city's defenses. A pleasant walk along the remaining city walls from Marienplatz to the Weingarten is the easiest way to explore the last intact section of Naumburg's wall, moat, and defensive battlements.
