By 1498 the entire outer city wall was completed: a fortress in the shape of an irregular pentagon, accessible through two gates, surrounded by a moat fed by the Isonzo, protected by thick stone walls with internal walkways and equipped with round towers.

A city wall, built towards the end of the Middle Ages, which combines all the attributes of fortifications of that time - well worth seeing!
