About: Porta Capuana

An Entity of Type: building, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Porta Capuana is an ancient city gate in Naples, Italy. The gate also gives name to the zone, which is one of the ten boroughs of Naples. This zone being part of the Fourth Municipality. In spite of the name, the portal is not the ancient gateway to the decumanus maximus, the main east-west road that once led out of Roman Naples to Capua. When the city was extended eastwards in the 15th century as part of the construction of the new Aragonese city walls, the original gate, which had been closer to the castle of the same name, Castel Capuano, was rebuilt and relocated in 1484. Then when the walls were razed, the gate remained free-standing, giving it somewhat the air of a triumphal arch. The carving on the 1484 facings consists of classically inspired trophies, flying Victories and othe

dbo:abstract
  • Die Porta Capuana ist ein 1484 erbautes Stadttor in Neapel (Italien), in der Nähe des Castel Capuano. (de)
  • La Porta Capuana est une porte monumentale du XVe siècle qui faisait partie jadis des murailles fortifiées de la ville de Naples. Elle est dénommée ainsi parce qu'elle est orientée dans la direction de la cité de Capoue. Située en dehors des traditionnels circuits touristiques, avec la port'Alba, la porta Nolana, la porta San Gennaro, elle délimite le centre historique de Naples. Elle est aussi l'accès au decumanus maximus, appelé également via dei Tribunali, qui traverse sur toute sa longueur le centre historique pour rejoindre, à l'Ouest, la port' Alba. Elle s'est toujours trouvée dans une zone très animée et a représenté aussi un carrefour artistique et culturel ; c'est à porta Capuana, par exemple que naquit au début du XIXe siècle ce qu'on appela le « Quartier Latin » de Naples, lieu de rencontre important d'artistes napolitains de l'époque. C'est aussi un des lieux de marchés (fruits et légumes et poissons) les plus pittoresques de la ville. (fr)

  • 卡普阿门(Porta Capuana)是意大利南部城市那不勒斯的一个古老的城门,位于第四区。 该城门并不在曾经通往卡普阿的古代东西干道上,靠近同名的城堡,卡普阿城堡。当城市在15世纪向东扩展,此门作为新建的阿拉贡城墙的一部分,在1484年易地重建,拥有美丽的雕刻。后来城墙被拆除,卡普阿门旧孤立地矗立着,有点凯旋门的味道。城门内便是带穹顶的福米耶洛圣加大肋纳堂(Santa Caterina a Formiello)。 (zh)
