O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Vrata nose grb velikog meštra uklesan u kamen iznad ulaza, simbol moći koja je nekada kontrolirala ovaj prolaz. Kroz lučni svod vrata kretali su se vitezovi, vojnici i trgovci više od 300 godina.

Istaknuto: Unutar debelih zidina vrata nalazi se mala stražarnica u kojoj su vojnici mogli iz zasjede iznenaditi uljeze. Izvorne željezne šarke koje su nosile ogromna drvena vrata još su uvijek vidljive i svjedoče o prošlim vremenima zanata i obrane.

Insajderski savjeti

Look for the arrow slits in the stone walls on both sides of the passage, they reveal the gate's defensive function.
The best photo is taken from below with the gate framing the narrow street and the stairs behind.
Avoid hours between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM when cruise ships send large groups to the area.
Combine the visit with a trip to the Innsida Fortifications Visitor Centre nearby to better understand the defensive works.
