After the victory of the Hungarian king in the 4th century against the Mongols, the citizens of Gradets received the Golden Bulla in 1242, which declared freedom of trade in their city. In the text of the announcement it was written: "A free royal city Gradetz, on the hill of Zagreb". One of the requirements for realizing rights was that they had to build strong walls that protected the city. They fulfilled the commitment between the years 1242 and 1266. Haskum walls were built up to 2 meters thick with several large gates. Certain parts of the wall and the stone gate that we see are the only parts preserved to this day. What the original gate looks like is unknown, the only thing known for certain is that it was built in a city where the tree was the main building material. The oldest document describing the appearance of the gate dates from the 16th century. The gate was described as "an open structure without a roof, with a tower in the northwest and a bridge over the embankment, other gates: a gate from Saniska in the west, optics or a new gate at the end of Optica Street, , Due to proximity to the monastery), and a small gate "Dverce" in the southern part.
