Ludwigsburger Torhäuser, Historical gatehouses in Ludwigsburg, Germany
The six preserved gatehouses mark the former city entrances of Ludwigsburg, forming part of a 6-kilometer defensive wall system from the 18th century.
Johann Adam Groß the Younger designed these Baroque gatehouses in 1760, with the Stuttgarter Torhaus serving as the architectural model for the others.
Each gatehouse now functions as a specialized museum, with exhibits ranging from military history to film production and traditional crafts documentation.
The exterior of all gatehouses remains accessible throughout the day, while interior visits require participation in specific guided tours or events.
The Schorndorfer Torhaus contains an exhibition about the investigation of National Socialist crimes by the Federal Archives of Ludwigsburg.
