One of the most interesting buildings of the Old Town is the entrance to the estate of the Venetian Rainier family. In addition to the remains of a mansion and courtyards, there are ruins of the chapel of St. Nicholas. The entrance portal is decorated with the coat of arms of the Rainier family and the Latin phrase: "MULTA TULIT, FECITQUE AT STUDUIT DULCES / PATER, SUDAVIT ET ALSIT SEMPER REQUIES CERENAT, MDCVIII" ( he rests in peace. 1608 ").

The street in front of the gate is so narrow that it is impossible to photograph the gate directly, only from the side. Around the corner is another wall more or less in good condition with a window decorated with the coat of arms of Rainier.
