The original at least eight gatehouses of the baroque city of Ludwigsburg were part of the former city fortifications. It consisted of a wall about 6 kilometres long and up to 3.5 m high, which was equipped with gates at its entrances and exits. Each gate complex had a gatehouse connected to the city wall, which served as a guard and customs house. However, the aim was not so much to guard the city from external enemies, but rather to prevent the soldiers, some of whom had been forcibly recruited and barracked in the city, from deserting. Of these gatehouses, six still survive today; these are listed as historical monuments.
