The gate of the Saline in Rapallo

La Porta delle Saline a Rapallo

The Gate of the Saline in Rapallo.
To tell the truth, I didn't even know there was a door in Rapallo and this one in the photo was a real surprise.
It is located at the end of the seafront promenade and you can walk along it to enter the alley.
I read on the town's website that the name comes from some salt mines that were in the area.

If you know something more or want to write me something about it add a comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

I took several photos in the town of Rapallo, if you want to see them I am here:

E’ l’unica sopravvissuta delle cinque porte dell’antico “borgo murato”, e deve il suo nome alla vicinanza con le Saline, di cui la famiglia genovese dei Doria aveva il monopolio, che furono in attività per molti secoli nella zona pianeggiante presso la spiaggia al centro del golfo.
