Taken from Wikipedia, translated via google, "The Rententurm is a late Gothic gate tower of the former city ??fortification of Frankfurt am Main and part of the Saalhof . The tower secured the Fahrtor , which, as the most important main-side city ??gate of Frankfurt, connected the center of the historic city center , the Römerberg , with the harbor on the banks of the Main, outside the city wall. Opposite the pension tower on Mainkai lies since 1869 the northern bridgehead of the Ironbridge ."
