Porta Settimiana was one of the three gateways in the Aurelian walls on the eastern side of the Tiber river. In the Middle Ages, the Via Recta left through this gate leading to the Tiber river port in Trastevere. It was restored at the dawn of the 15th century and then again in 1498 when Pope Alexander VI wanted to enhance it's military appeal. After marching out of the Vatican, Cesare Borgia left Rome through this gateway on his way to attack Romagna and the Villa Auditore.

Database Entry

In the Middle Ages, the Via Recte left through this gate leading to the Tevere (Tiber River) port in Trastevere. It was restored at the beginning of the 15th century and again in 1498 when Pope Alexander VI wanted to give it a more military feel, right before Cesare marched out of the Vatican to attack Romagna and the Villa Auditore.
