    The Niederemmendingen town gate is the only remaining one of four Baroque gates that were originally built in the early 18th century as part of the town's fortifications. In 1706, it received a distinctive turret, and in 1929 a second gateway was added – to this day, it dominates the entrance to Karl-Friedrich-Straße. Remnants of the old town wall are visible nearby, including at Hebelstraße and Goethepark.

        Equipped with a turret in 1706 and extended by a second passage in 1929, the Emmendinger Tor was the only one of three gate towers that remained intact, which together with the city wall running around the old town formed the city fortifications.
