Isartor, Medieval gate tower in Altstadt, Germany
The Isartor stands 40 meters tall with a central tower and two side towers, forming part of Munich's original defensive fortifications.
Built in 1337 during Munich's expansion under Emperor Louis IV, this eastern gate served as a crucial entry point along the Salt Road.
The Valentin-Karlstadt Museum inside the tower displays exhibits about Munich's performing arts through the works of comedian Karl Valentin.
The Isartor S-Bahn station and tram lines provide direct access to this monument, which stands at the intersection of major pedestrian routes.
The western tower features a clock that runs counterclockwise, adding an unexpected element to this medieval structure.
