Puerta de Santiago
The Puerta de Santiago is a ravelin (a defensive outwork) that was built in 1549 by the engineer Miguel de Perea, featuring its towers and a bridge over the moat, which initially had an S-shape. In 1680, the engineer Toscano Brito made the bridge drawbridge (levadizo), and in 1699, the layout of the bridge was reformed into a straight line, following the instructions of the engineer Octavio Meni.
