In the first half of the 13th century, the Severinstor was built as a heavy tower gate castle with an asymmetrical hexagonal tower structure with a crenellated roof platform made of tufa.

The remaining historic city gates, here the "SEVERINSTORBURG", which are now located in the middle of the city, are impressive witnesses to the extensive city wall that once protected Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium. Over the centuries there were several extensions, because the city naturally grew and the space within the Roman city walls became too small. After the forced demolition of the fortifications, it is mainly thanks to the then mayor Konrad Adenauer that the areas were not redeveloped, but the "green belt" was able to emerge.
