The 5th Gate

The 5th Gate is a simple gate, without ornaments. In the past, the gate was used by the soldiers to exit the training field.

The gate is located between Gate VI and Gate IV, on the eastern part of the Alba Carolina fortress.

The gate is actually a tunnel.

After entering the fortress through the 6th Gate, King Ferdinand and Queen Maria also passed through the 5th Gate when they first came to Alba Iulia.

When you think at Nuremberg Christmas Market you think at the enticing smells of mulled wine and rum punch, roasted almonds, Nuremberg bratwurst and gingerbread fill the air. Travel to Nuremberg and visit the Imperial Castle (Nuremberg’s most important landmark), medieval city and Gothic churches.
