Description
The arc of Populo in the city of Cadiz ( Spain ) is the primitive Puerta del Mar, because through it the port area was accessed, and it was flanked by two cubes. In the early seventeenth century the chapel of Our Lady of Populo was built in front of it, which give the appearance of the passage as we see it today. The interior features match the edilicias facing techniques of Islamic ramparts of the tenth and eleventh centuries. The arrangement of the segments place it in the twelfth century, during the Almohad period as all the original walled perimeter.
