The Fourth Gate of the Alba Iulia Citadel (Poarta a Patra) is also called the Bishop's Gate. The gate, which provides access from the west to the castle courtyard, is decorated in the Baroque style. The upper part of the gatehouse housed the living quarters of the Austrian army personnel, while the guard rooms were located below. During the summer months, actors reenact historical events here every Friday starting at 7 p.m.
