FR La porte du Soubeyran était l'une des quatre porte de la ville, située au nord de l'enceinte médiévale et déjà citée dans les archives dès 1216 (portali superiori). Ses vestiges actuels dateraient du XIVe siècle. En 1834. une horloge a été établie sur la porte afin de distribuer l'heure aux quartiers nord de la ville. C'est aussi à cette période que le campanile a été ajouté à la tour. Et à la fin du XIX' siècle, elle était tellement délabrée qu'une reconstruction fut nécessaire.
