Ploče Gate. Close to Ravelin fort placed outside the city walls two gates combines eastern entrance to the city. Outer gate of Ploče are placed just next to the fort Ravelin and was build in the mid-15th century by Simeone della Cava. The smaller inner Gate of Ploče as a part of a defense city wall sheltered by the high Asimon fort (Fort of Ploče) is erected in Romanesque style. Wooden down bridge and twin-spanned stone bridge (15th century) build by Paskoje Miličević are similar to those at Pila Gate. The statue of St Blaise, the patron of Dubrovnik, also guards this City entrance.
