Kütertor, Medieval city gate in Stralsund, Germany
The Kütertor features a square foundation topped with a pointed roof tower and stands as one of two remaining gates from Stralsund's original fortifications.
First documented in 1281, the gate underwent reconstruction in 1446 and served as a prison until 1862 before transitioning into residential accommodations.
The gate derives its name from local butchers who processed animal products in this district during the medieval period of Stralsund's development.
Located at Heilgeiststraße 2 in Stralsund, the Kütertor area underwent redevelopment in 2012, incorporating new constructions while preserving historical elements.
This medieval structure represents one of ten original gates that protected Stralsund, divided between five land gates and five sea gates.
