Where the "Prospettiva" currently stands, there was a gateway to the city of Ferrara through the walls. It was built at the expense of the Municipality between 1703 and 1704 on a design by Francesco Mazzarelli. In the original project it was made up of three arches and decorated with marble coats of arms. It was transformed and enlarged with the addition of two side passages in the twentieth century, when the course was widened.
