Point Cloud -- Puerta de Toledo, Spain3D Model
This is a point cloud of the so-called Puerta de Toledo, located in Ciudad Real (Spain) that was scanned with three FARO Focus3D scanners in 2017. It receives that name for being the gate that gave access to the road that linked Ciudad Real with Toledo. This gate was part of the walls that surrounded and protected the city in the Middle Ages. Originally it had two heights, but only half being preserved. It was also equipped with doors and rakes capable of preventing entry. From an artistic point of view it is a mixture of Gothic and Islamic art. During the restoration work on the gate, carried out a few years ago, several sculpted heads wearing a crown were discovered in the vaults, so it is interpreted that it could be a representation of the king, perhaps Alfonso X.
