The Arch of the Sergius Family Photo

Photographer’s Note

Pula (pop. 58,000) is one of the main cities of Istria, and it has many Roman ruins to explore, not just the famous amphitheatre.

In the year 27 BC this arch was erected to commemorate the members of the Sergius family.

It was indeed the gate to town. The street behind was the main street in Roman times, and it still leads to the Forum.

The street is called now Sergijevaca, which I guess means "Sergius street".

Hi Daniel,
a very good composition of an interesting place. The old patina arch looks impressive and is a nice gate to the narrow street. A blue sky would have been nice, but the weather is not always perfect. Tfs!
Have a nice weekend !

Bonjour Daniel
Un bon choix pour le format et l'encadrement de la rue commerçante par cette porte à l'architecture intéressante. Les couleurs sont bien restituées.
Merci pour le partage et bonne journée.
