Review & FAQ:

The Old Gateway (Roman Arch) provides evidence of the ancient town that used to stand where medieval Rijeka was built. The arch is the oldest monument in the city and was once the entrance to the city center of the late antique Roman Tarsatica. The arch is only partially intact today as pieces of it have fallen off or been blown up over time. The arch spans a small street in Rijeka between two buildings. It is a popular attraction for visitors to the town and makes for interesting photographs. It can easily be missed amongst the modern buildings that surround it, so keep your eyes peeled.
