霍尔斯滕门位于德国吕贝克西方，由于城门位于汉萨同盟首都城，位阶相对提高，成为吕贝克的地标。此后哥德式建筑作为堡垒防御之用，为吕贝克唯一存留的城堡大门遗迹。

The Holsten Gate ("Holstein Tor", later "Holstentor") is a city gate marking off the western boundary of the old center of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck. This Brick Gothic construction is one of the relics of Lübeck’s medieval city fortifications and one of two remaining city gates, the other being the Citadel Gate ("Burgtor"). Because its two round towers and arched entrance are so well known it is regarded today as a symbol of this German city, and together with the old city centre (Altstadt) of Lübeck it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987.
