The Portal de Valldigna is a gate opened in 1400 to the Islamic wall to communicate the city with the moreria, a suburb that was established in the vicinity of the Plaza de Mossén Sorell after the Christian conquest of the city. Semicircular arch with a slight advance of the imposts that resembles the Arab horseshoe arches.

The door is a semicircular arch of ashlar with a slight advance of the imposts that resembles the Arab horseshoe arches. Above the vain there is an altarpiece of Gothic inspiration, although of modern style, in which Jaume I is represented offering the abbot of Santes Creus the land to build the Monastery of Valldigna. The extension of the house over the portal dates from 1678.
