The Portal de Valldigna was an access door to the Morería neighborhood of Valencia, which was opened in the old Muslim wall, in the year 1400.
The Muslims who had stayed after the conquest of Valencia settled outside the wall that they themselves had built. Later, in 1356, another wall (the Christian one) was built that included the Morería in the city. The old Muslim wall was not demolished, thus counting the city with two defensive fences. Little by little it was demolished, although in the 18th century there were still numerous remains of the Muslim wall.
