The Sendlinger Tor, constructed in about 1318, was surprisingly to guard the main trade route to Italy, which by medieval standards was quite far away from Munich. The current gate isn't really authentic, though, as there was a central tower until 1808, and the arch replacing it dates to 1906. The two pedestrian arches are of similar vintage.
