The Landau Gate (French Porte de Landau) in Lauterbourg in Alsace dates back to a high medieval fortress and was converted into a city guard's apartment in 1706. The Landauer Tor is protected as a monument historique. The structure was built as a fortress tower in the middle of the 13th century together with the city's other fortress structures and served as a subtower to defend the eastern entrance to the city. A room for the tower watchman was set up as early as 1615. The actual tower was demolished in 1706 along with most of the other city towers; the current building was built on its base as a city guard's apartment. To the east, the former coat of arms of France once adorned the building, which was replaced in 1792 by a figure of the sun, the heraldic symbol of Louis XIV, and of which fragments have still been preserved. The building was renovated from 1978 to 1985. Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer_Tor_(Lauterbourg)

The gate was part of the "Lauterlinien" built under Marshal Vauban in 1708. It was built on an older foundation. In the gable on the north side you can see a sun that is reminiscent of the Sun King Louis XIV.
In the upper part of the building (only accessible during guided tours) there is a model of the city's fortifications, based on the plans from 1782.
