The medieval Main Gate was an important part of the Highest Fortress.
In the red sandstone masonry you can still clearly see the flood marks of several centuries.

The Highest Main Gate and the Gothic fortress wall with the coat of arms Diethers of Isenburg date to the year 1460. The Ochsenturm, an originally freestanding waiting tower from the 13th century, was included in the first city expansion between 1396 and 1432 in the city wall. They are the only surviving parts of the old Höchst city fortification.
