📍 Germany
Old Gate (Altpörtel) in Speyer, Germany, is one of the tallest and most striking medieval city gates in the country, standing at 55 meters. Built between 1230 and 1250, it provides dramatic viewpoints for photographers capturing both the city's skyline and the surrounding landscape. The upper floors host exhibitions that detail its history, adding context to your shots. Plan your visit around late afternoon when the lighting casts long, soft shadows, perfect for dramatic captures. Photographers should also explore nearby cobblestone streets and the remnants of the city's fortifications for additional historical context and unique perspectives.
