Silver Gate in Split

Silver Gate in Split, or Porta Argentea in Latin, is the eastern gate of Diocletian Palace. If you rent accommodation in Split and take a stroll through the Split market, you will enter the palace through these gates and be enchanted by its beauty. Once adorned with silver, these gates were one of the four entrances to Diocletian Palace. Built in the early 4th century AD, they served as the main entrance to the palace until the 7th century AD. The Silver Gate in Split is constructed from limestone and marble and is surrounded by two octagonal towers. Originally decorated with statues and reliefs, most of these embellishments have been lost over time. During World War II, the gates suffered significant damage and were not fully restored until the 1950s. Today, they are a popular tourist attraction, reminding visitors of the grandeur of Diocletian Palace and the city of Split.
