The recently built wooden tower is another point of ascent and descent of the walkway on top of the walls. Going out in piazza del Rosso we take Via del Borghetto, with some restaurants, which leads to the faculty of Agriculture, the oldest in the world. From Lungarno Buozzi it is possible to see the Fortezza bridge. In this stretch of roadonce there was another gate in the walls, the Spina Alba gate, demolished in the nineteenth century.

The Spina denomination is already found in documents of the tenth century, often combined with the term Alba, but there are no documents that explain the reason for this toponym; some presume that the name derives from the presence, in the past, of many plants and hawthorn trees (biancospino) in this area. in the nineteenth century, the Barriera delle Piagge was created in this area, also called the Piagge gate, which has now disappeared.
