On the north side of town, the Toruńska Gatehouse (<i>Brama Toruńska</i>) sat just in front of the river crossing, while the south side was guarded from the Kaliska Gatehouse (<i>Brama Kaliska</i>); both gatehouses were named for towns that were primary destinations for merchants travelling through Konin. </p><p>The walls were reinforced by a series of rectangular towers that projected from the walls, creating a bastion-like structure.
