The Jakoberwall in Augsburg is a striking bastion from the former city fortifications, constructed between 1540 and 1542. Situated between Vogeltor and Jakobertor, it features a high earth mound with a moat. A three-story defense tower with a semicircular design and adjacent residential buildings complete this historical site.
