Tekst op het transparante glazen bord luid
Dit is de enige stadspoort die nog in Gorinchem staat.
verder waren er nog de Kanselpoort, de Arkelpoort, en de Waterpoort ( de laaste et bezichtigen in de tuin van het rijksmuseum).
De Dalempoort werd gebouwd tussen 1595 en 1597 in 1770 en was onderdeel van de omwalling die in 1609 werd afgerond. In 1770 werd de poort aanzienlijk uitgebreid.
