Hirschberger Tor

In 1753, the Westphalian Baroque master builder Johann Conrad Schlaun designed the imposing Hirschberger Tor on behalf of Elector Clemens August, originally intended as the central gate for the impressive hunting lodge in Hirschberg. Today, it serves as a majestic entrance gate to Arnsberg's city forest. This place has an almost magical atmosphere, especially in winter. The snow-covered forest, gently swaying in the wind, creates a tranquil backdrop that invites you to marvel. The cold months give the Hirschberger Tor a very special charm and make it an ideal destination for winter hikes or quiet walks.

The frosty air and the crackling sound of snow underfoot give this historic landmark an almost mystical allure. When the sky is clear and the ground is covered in glistening snow, it is an incomparable sight that invites you to pause and enjoy the history and beauty of this special place. On the path through the city forest, visitors can discover the magic of the winter landscape and take in the tranquillity of this place steeped in history.

The Hirschberger Tor is not only a monument of historical value, but also an attractive excursion destination that fascinates visitors with its tranquil splendor, especially in the cold season. A visit here, perhaps complemented by a warm cup of tea from a thermos flask, is an unforgettable experience that adds a touch of light and warmth to the dark winter days.
