"Son las antiguas entradas al asentamiento militar de la villa y coinciden con los cuatro puntos cardinales.

La Puerta de Loja o de Jerez se sitúa al oeste y está dedicada a la Virgen del Carmen. Esta puerta fue rehecha en 1950, y en ella figura una placa con la inscripción: Rex Ferdinandus, Regina Elisabet, urben quan cemis, mínima constituere die adversus fides erecta est, ut conterat ostes. Hit censet dice, nomine Santa Fides que significa El Rey Fernando y la Reina Isabel, esta Ciudad que ves, en muy pocos días levantaron. Erigiese para destruir los enemigos contrarios a la Fe, por eso creen que se le debe llamar Santa Fe."
