The Rhine Gate was built in 1937/38 as part of dike reinforcements and completely renovated in the late 1990s. It represents a breakthrough of the dike and thus enables access to the ferry to Duisburg Walsum.

"If you should not be Niederrheiner: The district of Rheinberg, which was incorporated in 1975, is pronounced Orsau." If one interchanges the first two letters, the meaning of the place name is obvious to strangers: Rossaue or Rosswiese, and the coat of arms of Orsoy shows accordingly three horse heads over a city wall - this wall is still largely preserved today. "

Orsoy is a district of the North Rhine-Westphalian town of Rheinberg on the left bank of the Lower Rhine. Translated, the word Orsoy means (spoken: in the dialect short and hard: Oschau) something like "horse meadow" (Rossaue).

Because of the Rhine promenade, its fortress walls and its historic buildings, Orsoy is a popular excursion destination, from where you can take the Orsoy-Walsum Rhine ferry to the Walsum district of Duisburg on the right bank of the Rhine.

The Rheintor designed by architect Helmut Hentrich in 1937 to protect against flooding

On the WE, in good weather, Orsoy is overrun by "tourists of all colors". During the week it is rather tranquil there.
