The gate lets you see the city wall as a working boundary rather than an isolated ruin. Its towers, pointed arch and battlements reveal later rebuilding over an earlier Islamic entrance. Approach along Calle Cairuán to see how the gateway and wall shaped movement into the old quarter.
What to look for
Two towers frame the pointed gateway.
Battlements trace the top of the surviving wall.
A statue of Seneca faces the gate.
Useful to know
Approach from Calle Cairuán to see the wall and arch together.
Treat the public passage as the visit; do not assume access to the battlements.
