Pass through this medieval gate to see the transition between Assisi’s walled streets and the approach to the Saint Francis basilica. Its masonry and opening are a concrete reminder that pilgrims entered a defended town, not an isolated sanctuary. Pause on both sides to compare the gateway with the road and buildings it frames.
