The upper city gate, the Dolder (1291), was built at the same time as the first fortifications at the end of the 13th century and served as a defensive tower, watchtower, and bell tower. In Alsatian, "Dolder" means "highest point, peak." At 25 meters high, this tower threatened the enemy with the stark and warlike appearance of its exterior, while the inner facade, facing the city, had delighted the inhabitants since the 16th century with its attractive arrangement of wooden beams and four corbelled vaults. Its first level formed one of the starting points of the patrol path that ran along the top of the ramparts around the city.
