During the renovation work at the beginning of the 20th century, the church was secured by a wall facing the street and this wrought iron main gate with side pedestrian gates and gilded tops and a secondary gate were built. On a plaque on the right pedestrian gate you can read a tribute from Pope Benedict XVI.
