Porta Portese
Historic site · Trastevere, Italy
A Baroque gate at the southern end of the rione. The flea market held in these streets is not recorded here: no source for it could be fetched.
History
it.wikipedia records that Marcantonio de Rossi built it in 1641-1644 for Urban VIII, replacing the older Porta Portuensis, in step with the building of the Mura gianicolensi.
