The rectangular tower was built around 1300. The round tower and central section were built around 1450 and flank a pointed-arch passageway. The round tower features a projecting battlement. The more elaborate design of the round tower, the central section, and the top of the rectangular structure corresponds to the construction period around 1450 and was probably initiated by Stephan Buxtehude, to whom the Uenglinger Gate in Stendal and the Elbe Gate in Werben are attributed. The round tower is decorated with glazed bricks arranged in spiral or zigzag patterns, a molded stone frieze depicting the head of Medusa, and varied blind decorations. The plaster blinds above the gate passage bear coats of arms painted in 1897: Prussian Eagle, Imperial Eagle with the applied Hohenzollern Shield, Tangermünde Eagle, Eagle of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, Brandenburg Eagle.

Taking your bike with you costs €3.60 - but you can get to the other side of the river really quickly and easily.

If you don't want to take one of the ferries to cross the Elbe, you can't avoid this bridge. The bike path is nice and wide, and even oncoming cyclists are no problem.
