The facade is structured by pointed arch blind frame windows arranged evenly. Above the gate opening, there are two large niches on the city side, containing paired pointed arch windows and reliefs in the spandrels: to the left, the busts of a king, and to the right, a pair of patricians with a hairband. Comparable stone half-figures of bourgeois couples from the 14th century, originally from the war-destroyed house "Zum Molsberg," are now preserved in the state museum. The pointed arch, hollowed gate passage is vaulted with ribbed vaulting on the city side and is located about two meters below the current street level. The twelve-meter-high tower helmet in the shape of a steep tent roof, along with the corner turrets with pointed caps, corresponds to the typical fortification tower crowning of the 15th century and was partially reconstructed in 1961.
