Porta Romana is one of the ancient gates in the walls of Siena, located on the route of the ancient Via Cassia. It was built in 1327 - 1328 by Agnolo di Ventura and Agostino di Giovanni, equipped with battlements and a defensive wall. In 1417, Taddeo di Bartolo was commissioned to paint the fresco that was to adorn it with a depiction of the Virgin, like the other city gates, to implore divine protection for the city. In 1978, the frescoes, due to advanced deterioration, were detached and transferred to the Basilica of San Francesco. However, there is a Roman inscription at the Porta Romana!The inscription was written on a travertine tablet and, based on its graphic characters and content, can be dated to the Augustan period (27 BC – 0) saying "Silvanus sacr(um) / C. Victricius / Memor VIvir / [a] ugustalis posuit" = Caio Victricio Memore Seviro augustale dedicated a small temple to Silvanus.

In Siena, as we know, your eye always falls there, on the shell-shaped Campo or the striped marble of the Duomo. And rightly so. But then there are those places that speak to you in a different voice, more raspy and sincere. Porta Romana is one of them. Let's be clear: this isn't a small archway placed there for show. This is a beast of brick and stone, a fortress planted to the south to tell those arriving from Rome: "Be careful, you're entering Siena." It's massive, imposing, it makes you feel small and immediately reminds you that this city was once a serious thing, a power that had to be defended. It has none of the frills of other monuments; it gets straight to the point, and for me, its charm begins right there.

I crossed it in the middle of August, the thermometer at 44 degrees, I will remember it for a long time...

It feels like stepping back in time; if you pass by, a coffee at Gianni's, the owner of a small but well-stocked grocery store in the center of town, is a must.

Very cool place for water refilling. Nice artwork.

Interesting, but popular (i.e. crowded and busy) small Tuscan hill town. The walled garden is recommended for the interesting layout, and the statue of Lorenzo the Magnificent. Near the top of the steep descent out of town in the eventual direction of Radicofani, a large Restaurant/cafe/deli is to be found. Good place to have a coffee/breakfast, and to stock up on takeaway pizza for the journey.
