Ochsentor

Abstract

The northern gate of Sempach, whose name means "Oxen Gate", has nothing medieval about it any more, since it was demolished in 1865 and only rebuilt in 1985 in order to give the town a new look. Its name probably comes from the ox carts of the farmers who came to sell their products at the market.
