Wormser Tor, Triumphal arch city gate in Frankenthal, Germany.

The Wormser Tor stands as a stone gate structure with double pilasters, a broad gable, and a cruciform vaulted passage through its center.

Built between 1770 and 1772, this gate replaced an older entrance in the city walls and remained connected to fortifications until 1890.

The interior decorations include flat relief work and portraits of Elector Karl Theodor, representing the architectural style of the late 18th century.

The gate structure, located in central Frankenthal, can be reached by local transportation and serves as a reference point for city navigation.

While passage through the gate is no longer permitted, cyclists frequently use the surrounding paths as part of regional cycling routes.
