O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: This part of the fortress gate has remained almost untouched since the late 19th century. Every year, more than 300 thousand visitors pass through it.
Istaknuto: Bullet and shrapnel marks from the defensive battles of 1941 are still visible in the bricks of the gate. At night, you can see spotlights illuminating the original 19th century arches, creating a mystical play of light on the ancient walls.

- Photograph from the opposite side of the river to frame the gate and reflections in the water.
- Examine the walls up close and find the remaining bullet marks from World War II.
- On summer weekends, ask about night tour routes with historical torches.
