Enderttor, Medieval city gate in Cochem, Germany.

The Enderttor features massive stone walls, defensive towers, and battlements that demonstrate medieval engineering and architectural principles from the 14th century.

Built in 1332 under Prince Balduin's direction, the Enderttor formed part of Cochem's fortification system to protect against potential attacks from the Endert Valley.

The gate structure served multiple functions throughout its existence, including periods when sections of the building operated as the town's local prison.

Located in a pedestrian area of Cochem's old town, the Enderttor provides an entrance point to explore the medieval streets and traditional architecture.

The Enderttor stands as the largest of Cochem's three remaining city gates and was a regular stop for stagecoaches traveling between Frankfurt and Cologne.
