Landsberg am Lech still preserves significant parts of its ancient medieval walls, which were built between the 13th and 15th centuries.

These walls, along with their towers and gates, served to protect the city, which was an important commercial crossroads on the Salt Route (Salzstraße).

The medieval walls formed a complete defensive belt around the city.

Several fortified gates and watchtowers still stand, preserving the historical atmosphere.

The best-preserved sections are located near the Lech River and around the historic center, where it is possible to walk along the walls and enjoy impressive views.

- Bayertor

- Mutterturm

- Turm der Heiligen Geist-Spital

- Bäckertor

Sections of the walls in the east and south of the city are still visible, often incorporated into private homes and gardens.

Strolling along the walls of Landsberg is like stepping back into the Middle Ages. The combination of the imposing Bayertor, the narrow streets within the historic center, and the views over the Lech River gives the city a unique charm.

Today, the walls and their towers are not only an architectural heritage, but also one of the main tourist attractions of Landsberg am Lech, showing how the city has managed to preserve its past and integrate it into the present.
