==History==
The name comes from the legend regarding the founding of Siena, that a soldier by the name of Camulio had been sent to Siena by the founder of Rome, Romulus, to capture his grandson's Senio and Ascanio. However, Camulio instead stayeda and built a town around the area of the portal. Over the centuries, this gate, which lead towards Florence was often the most defended. The original gate, built during the 13th century was razed during the 1555 siege of Siena. A few hundreds north along via Vittorio Emanuele II rises the ''Antiporto di Camollia'', an additional fortification built to defend this access to the Via Francigena.
