Ha, whenever I walk through this gate, I feel reminded of my very old days, when knights, farmers and merchants passed through my city gate and I was still surrounded by a thick city wall. I used to have eleven city gates. Today, two are still preserved and look forward to your visit. And this isn't just for medieval fans. Get your camera ready! It is my gateway to the beautiful old town and my young audience, to whom, as you may know by now, I am very close with, meets in the adjacent Pontviertel. In my student quarter around Pontstraße, there is a lot going on, especially late in the evening, because here, there is a row of bars. But getting back to the journey through time, my Pontstraße is also part of the former royal road, which kings in the Middle Ages, via Krefeld and Roermond, took and allowed themselves be crowned here with me, the old former imperial city. Pretty cool, right?
