Gelnhausen was founded by Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa in 1170 as an imperial city. It is assumed that the extensive city fortifications can be traced back to the construction of the imperial palace. When the outer defensive ring was enlarged in the 14th century, the ship gate was created. It secured passage to the harbor on the Kinzig, which was still navigable at the time.
