"Medieval City Walls"

The Medieval city walls from the 12th Century comprise a deep moat, high outer walls and gates. The 6-8 meters (19.6- 26.2 feet) high city wall was further strengthened by archers' bow windows at the top. After the expansion of the town in the 14th Century, the Jewish population settled in the eastern part of Frankfurt, behind the walls. Today, the remains of the defenses can be viewed near the Zeil, where Töngesgasse and Fahrgasse meet. The route of the wall can still be observed in Frankfurt's road system today.
