Arco de la Rosa, antigua puerta del Cádiz medieval. Cádiz, España. Se trata de la puerta occidental de la muralla de la ciudad, construida en el siglo XIII por Alfonso X el Sabio. Dicha muralla era de mampostería y cal, almenada y con torres, si bien en este lienzo era de menor grosor que en otras zonas. La muralla estaba formada por tres lienzos, que daban al oeste, al norte y al este, la parte sur quedaba sin cubrir por nos ser necesaria, debido a los difícil de su acceso. Denominado en tiempos Arco de Santiago, por dar al arrabal del mismo nombre, no está demasiado clara su actual denominación.
