Overall system

The town of Möckmühl, which was only formed in the late Middle Ages from a rural settlement and a castle complex, is characterized by a topographically and genetically determined tripartite structure. The place is crowned by the Götzenburg seated on a spur, around which the abbey district, which existed between 1379 and 1558, extends with numerous special buildings. The steep slope areas below, which are used for horticultural purposes, with their relics of viticulture, form a valuable green zone to the valley settlement. With the main street as a guideline and the two central marketplaces, the valley town shows typical urban development from the 16th to 18th centuries, which in the peripheral areas is increasingly characterized by arable and artisanal methods.

Due to its importance, Möckmühl is a complete system according to § 19 DSchG, the maintenance of which is of particular public interest. It includes the castle and the old town within the city fortifications.

In 1634 the gate was walled up; At that time there was only a footpath to the adjacent usable areas. A residential building built on the stump of the tower in the 19th century and the former gatehouse at Linsengasse 29 were demolished in 1988 in order to reconstruct the gate system based on illustrations by Meißner (1627) and Merian (1643).
