The Puerta Matrera is the only remaining gate of the original city wall of Arcos de la Frontera. This gate connects the old town centre with the Barrio Bajo. It is a historically important building that was restored in the 17th and 18th centuries. From here you can still see remains of the city wall between the houses. The gate also has a small chapel with a statue of the Virgen del Pilar, which has been recently restored.

The town, situated on a rocky plateau, invites you to travel through time. From the 11th century it was the capital of a taifa, a small Berber kingdom. The fortified town was finally reconquered in 1264 by Alfonso X, who also took Seville, Jerez and Cádiz during the Reconquista. For two centuries Arcos was an outpost on the border of the kingdom and in the 15th century the village came into the hands of the Ponce de León family, who played a major role in the victory over the kingdom of Granada. During the 19th century, Arcos acquired its current appearance thanks to the rise of olive and grape cultivation and horse breeding.
