Porta Vecchia
Porta Vecchia is the oldest city gate in the walls of Grosseto, located at the southern corner of the fortifications. Together with the Cassero Senese, it is one of the two surviving architectural elements from the 14th-century city walls, having endured the extensive reconstruction work carried out by the Medici in the late 16th century.
