Puerta de Hierros, Monumental door in Albacete, Spain.

The Puerta de Hierros spans 36 meters in length and reaches 25 meters in height, featuring nine large gates and five main portals.

The original iron door, constructed in 1783 as the main entrance to the Albacete Fair grounds, consisted of green wooden porticos in neoclassical style.

Each year on September 7, the mayor of Albacete opens the Puerta de Hierros to mark the beginning of the city's main fair celebrations.

The central gate displays the Fair Pin and the Albacete coat of arms, serving as reference points for visitors entering the fairgrounds.

A replica of the original Puerta de Hierros stands in Jardinillos Park, facing the Albacete bullring since its installation in 2010.
