North City Gate Tower, Schaffhausen: Overall view

Date

Circa 1910

Creator

Part of: Architectural Lantern Slides of Switzerland
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries

The northern gate of the city is the Schwabentor. The tower itself was first mentioned as the "new tower" in 1361, built as a defense against the Swabians. It was later added to in 1555 and 1608. In 1782 it was capped with a Mansard roof and cupola (and clock with chimes); these were destroyed by fire in 1932 and in 1933-1935 it was restored back to an earlier version, with a simple hipped roof.
