The Porta Romana, also known as Porta Nuova, is one of the gates in the medieval walls of Siena. The gate was built in 1327-1328. It has a complex structure with two separate portals separated by a small courtyard, and the inner gate is higher than the outer one. The large arches are covered with travertine marble. In 1417, Taddeo di Bartolo was commissioned to paint the Madonna icon on the inner portal, dedicated to the protection of the city. The painting was further updated by Sassetta and later Sano di Pietro who completed it in 1466.
