The gate itself had its place at that time between the Long Bridge and the street Am Delft, where the Emsmauer met the Delft. It was built in 1635 - in the vicinity of a customs house and a tower, the Blue Tower.

The maritime location offers a view of the Old Ratsdelft, which lets you feel the secrets of earlier times. For example, around 1570 Emden was the most important transshipment point on the North Sea. At that time, the seaport city was home to more ships than the entire fleet

The harbor gate was built in 1635 by the Emden city architect Martin Faber. It is one of several artistically significant city gates that were built in the first half of the 17th century - and the only one that has survived. However, several restorations have been carried out over the centuries, so that the current condition shows the original condition, but no longer has any original materials. On the archway is the Latin saying "Et pons est Embdae et portus et aura deus" ("God is for Emden bridge, harbor and sailing wind"). Source: Wikipedia
