    In 1684, this gate was given a gatehouse and called the shepherd's house. It was called the shepherd's house because shepherd families lived there. This gave rise to the name "Hirtentor" (Hirten Gate), which is still used today. The second Eggolsheim gate, the Kauerhofer Gate, burned down in 1730 and was not rebuilt.
