The best-preserved gate of the former town fortifications, first mentioned in 1401, once formed the eastern exit to Wackernheim and Mainz in Aufhofstraße - known as Uffhub in local dialect.
The complex is characterised by a pointed arched gate and round oriel above console friezes. Parts of a pitch nose and key embrasures have been preserved, as have the deep mortises of the former wooden gate wings.
