One of Bonn's many city gates, Sterntor lies on the north side of Bottlerplatz, in the city centre. Originally, this gate, which dates back to the thirteenth century, was located at the end of the Sternstraße. It was one of the smaller gates that was used for the city's development. In the nineteenth century, the narrow gate hindered the ever increasing traffic, so it was torn down in 1898 and rebuilt two years later on the site of the Halbrundturms (tower), where it is still situated today.
