Om
Hurtige fakta: Denne del af fæstningens port er forblevet næsten urørt siden slutningen af det 19. århundrede. Hvert år passerer mere end 300.000 besøgende gennem den.
Højdepunkter: I portens mursten er kugle- og splintmærker fra forsvarskampene i 1941 stadig synlige. Om natten kan man her se, hvordan projektører oplyser de originale buer fra det 19. århundrede og skaber et mystisk lysspil på de gamle mure.
Insidertips
- Arrive early in the morning to avoid the crowd and see the gate in golden light.
- 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.
