The historic buildings in the surrounding district are being restored and modernized as "captains' houses". In this so-called water city at the harbor gate is also the entrance to the Ratsdelft, the harbor basin that was created in the Middle Ages. In the 16th century, Emden, today an important industrial location, rose to become one of the most important seaport cities in Europe. Prosperity brought staple rights, ship and trade duties, whaling, herring fishing and last but not least the diligence and skill of Calvinist religious refugees from the Netherlands.

The old inland port in the center of Emden is a maritime experience. The maritime location offers a view of the Old Ratsdelft, which lets you feel the mysteries of earlier times. Around 1570, for example, Emden was the most important transhipment point on the North Sea. At that time, the seaport city was home to more ships than England's entire fleet.
Traditional and yet open to new things, this is how the "Alter Binnenhafen" presents itself. In 1635 the Emden master builder Martin Faber built the harbor gate, the entrance to the medieval harbor, today's Ratsdelft.
