Porta Santa Lucia

Porta Santa Lucia is one of the most fascinating historic gateways to Urbino. Located to the northwest of the city, it is one of the main entry points for those arriving by car. The gate, built in the first half of the 19th century, was renovated to allow the passage of carriages and to facilitate access to the historic center.

The name "Santa Lucia" comes from an ancient complex that included a church and a convent, now disappeared over time. This gate is an important access point, with a parking lot located just outside the city walls, making it easy to enter the heart of Urbino. It is an ideal place to start exploring the city.
