Only surviving v.3 city gates:
Ober-Klenker and Untertor.
Built after the city rights were granted in 1515 by King Ludwig IN. "the Bavarian" to Count Georg I of Velden3. Important arterial road to the villages of the Meisenheim district, other Veldeng villages and the castles of Montfort, Lorenstein and Moschellandsberg.
Today city archive.

On the left side of the tower, a staircase leads to the battlement. The tower keeper lived on the top floor and had to watch over the peace of the city. If guests wanted to enter at night, he had to call the mayor, because only in his presence was he allowed to lower the drawbridge and open the small entrance gate.
