The Rothenberg Gate Tower is a four-storey sandstone ashlar tower with a tent roof, extended in 1610; in front of it is the massive parapet of the former Baroque arched bridge. It is one of the towers of the former city fortifications.

Three gates, connected by a city wall that is still intact today, enclose the old town of Seßlach. The complete city wall has a total length of 780 meters. The gates served as a prison or gatekeeper or bridge house. For more than 20 years, two of the three city gates have been closed on weekends and traffic has been banned from the city. Only residents receive a pass and a parking permit. This allows guests to stroll relaxed through the picturesque old town.
