Coria gate, Medieval gate in Cáceres, Spain

The stone archway presents worn surfaces and deteriorated structural elements, with visible ancient masonry techniques in its remaining sections.

The gate formed an essential part of the defensive system during the Roman occupation of Cáceres, protecting the settlement from potential invasions.

The gate marks one of the principal entrances to the old quarter, reflecting the architectural evolution of Cáceres from Roman times through medieval periods.

Visitors can reach the gate by following the city walls from Plaza Mayor, with informational panels explaining its construction and historical significance.

The position of this entrance allowed defenders to monitor approaching travelers from an elevated vantage point along the northwestern section of the wall.
