The author gives necessary and sufficient regularity conditions under which the polygonal reconstruction of curves solved by a travelling salesman tour or path, extending a theorem of \textit{K. Menger} [Math. Ann. 103, 467-501 (1932; JFM 56.0508.04)] on arc length for simple open curves to closed curves in Euclidean spaces.
