Stadtbefestigung Boppard, Medieval city walls in Boppard, Germany.
The stone fortification system extends around the old town center with walls reaching heights of up to seven meters at certain sections.
The first military fortification was built by Romans in the 4th century, and the medieval walls were constructed in the 12th and 13th centuries.
The fortification includes sixteen gates and doors that connected the city to different cardinal directions, reflecting medieval urban planning principles.
The eastern section features the Sandtor, a double gateway with barrel-vaulted passage that remains accessible for modern visitors.
The fortification incorporated an ice breaker wall at its northeastern corner to protect the city during flooding and ice dangers.
