Neustädter Tor, Tangermünde, Medieval city gate in Tangermünde, Germany.

The Neustädter Tor features a double gate structure with a square tower from 1300 and a round tower added in the mid-15th century.

In response to gunpowder weaponry advancements, Elector Frederick I ordered the addition of the 24-meter round tower during the 1450s fortification enhancement.

Five painted plaster reliefs above the gate display eagles, including the Tangermünde coat of arms, Prussian royal eagle, and Holy Roman Empire symbols.

The gate remains accessible to visitors throughout the year as part of the medieval town fortifications that include the Hünerdorf Gate and Elbe Gate.

A breach in the city wall near the gate, created during a 19th-century school construction, underwent complete restoration work in 2019.
