National monument - Old Fort, which is the provisional list of World Heritage Site welcomes its guests newly renovated Ferdinandova gate. You can see there a memorial plaque on the facade with the coat of arms and the inscription Ferdinand I Roman Emperor. In 2011, the reconstruction of the entire entrance to the Old Fort was completed.
The construction of the fortress was ordered in 1541 by the Roman-German Emperor Ferdinand I of Habsburg, therefore the gate was named after him. It was the first bastion fortress built outside Italy. Construction began in 1546 and finished it in 1557.
The fortress was to serve as a defense against the invasions of the Turks, who never conquered it. Even in 1594 it was besieged by the Turks under the leadership of Suleiman, but without success.
