Abstract

Bearing in mind the neglected state of Pula’s monuments in
a conservation-documentation sense, in 2010 a tour of these
monuments was started in order to document their present
condition. After a visit to the Double Gate that was the first in
a series of monuments to be inspected, we continued the tour
with Hercules’ Gate which is simpler both from a construction
standpoint as well as with regard to the observed and recorded
degradations. At the beginning of 2012, we documented all
of these degradations, both photographically and graphically,
including in this manner Hercules’ Gate in the data base
that shows the state of these monuments from a conservationrestoration
viewpoint.

Keywords
