Jochberger Tor

The Jochberger Tor is one of the surviving medieval town gates of Kitzbühel, the gate that once controlled access to the town from the Jochberg road to the south.

One of Kitzbühel’s surviving medieval town gates, marking the south entrance to what was once a walled copper-mining settlement before skiing made it Austria’s most expensive resort. Free access; part of a 1-hour Kitzbühel Altstadt walking circuit that includes Gothic churches and painted medieval facades. The gate is a reminder that Kitzbühel existed for 600 years before the Hahnenkamm race made it famous.
