Although this landmark may seem modest, it’s one of the earliest pieces of Roman heritage still standing in Pula.
The arch has an eroded carving of Hercules, but you can also make out the names of two contemporary Roman officials: Gaius Cassius Longinus and Lucius Calpurnius Piso.
These two men were tasked by the Roman Senate with establishing Pula as a Roman colony in the middle of the 1st century BC.
