"The only preserved town gate with a square gate tower built of quarry stone with crenelation and stair tower. On the tower are high-water marks from 1882 until 1988. When the railway was built, the Kihrstor was integrated into a railway underpass; the former town wall forms the railway embankment on the Rhine side, on a length of 203 m."
