Tübinger Tor, Medieval defensive tower in Reutlingen, Germany.

The Tübinger Tor stands 36 meters tall with a distinctive half-timbered upper section and corner stones marking its architectural character.

Built in 1235 as part of the city fortification system, the tower received its current half-timbered expansion in 1330 under the name Mettmannstor.

The tower's special reception room now serves the city administration, transforming from its original purpose as a gatekeeper's watchpoint.

Located on Katharinenstraße 25 in Reutlingen, the tower remains accessible throughout the year and maintains regular opening hours for visitors.

This tower represents one of only two surviving gates from the original seven that protected medieval Reutlingen's city walls.
