Silver Gate, Ancient gate in Split, Croatia
The Silver Gate features two octagonal towers flanking a Roman-era entrance constructed with massive limestone blocks and decorated stone elements.
Originally named Porta Orientalis due to its eastern position, the gate remained walled up throughout the Middle Ages until its restoration in 1952.
The gate served as a passage between the Diocletian's Palace interior and the marketplace, connecting the Roman decumanus with the trading area.
Visitors can access the historic center of Split through this entrance, which leads directly to the cathedral and central square.
The gate structure contained the Church of Dušica until 1944, when it was destroyed during World War II bombardments.
