Oral tradition says that the gate got its name from the peasant shoes. The farmers from the surrounding area came to the city via dirt roads through this gate. Since the city authorities wanted to prevent the peasants from soiling the beautiful town with their clay-smeared clogs, the peasants had to take off their clogs at the gate before entering the town. A large number of wooden shoes, the "Holschen", stood at this gate on market days, which is why the gate was called "Holschentor".
