In relation to the rest of the city wall, the iron gate, built in 1514, is the tallest building. Two mighty towers take the archway in their middle. When passing through, the cartouche is emblazoned with the coat of arms of the Electorate of the Palatinate and the year 1514, the year of construction. The massive complex, a demonstration of the power of the Electorate of the Palatinate, concluded the construction of the fortifications in Freinsheim.
