O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Vrata nosijo grb velikega mojstra, vklesan v kamen nad vhodom, simbol moči, ki je nekoč nadzorovala ta prehod. Skozi obok vrat so se vitezi, vojaki in trgovci premikali več kot 300 let.

Poudarki: Znotraj debelega zidu vrat je majhna stražarnica, kjer so lahko vojaki presenetili vsiljivce v zasedi. Izvirni železni tečaji, ki so nosili ogromna lesena vrata, so še vedno vidni in pričajo o minulih časih rokodelstva in obrambe.

Notranji nasveti

  • 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.
