The Arco de San Benito is an impressive monument in Sahagún, located in the region of Castilla y León, Spain. It was built around 1662 by the architect Felipe Berrojo to replace the old Romanesque portal of the Monasterio de San Benito. The arch is designed as a triumphal arch, under which the N-120 passes, and is also known as "la puerta de Sahagún" (the gate of Sahagún). The monument is richly decorated with a central shield, inscriptions and sculptures of Saints Facundo and Primitivo. At the top is the royal shield, and there are also sculptures of Alfonso III and Alfonso VI, who were important protectors of the monastery.
