The Medieval Porta Ticinese is a gate of the former 12th-century Walls of Milan; it is located at the intersection of the Corso di Porta Ticinese and Via Edmondo de Amicis and Via Molino di Armi in the city center of Milan, region of Lombardy, Italy. This is one of the three remaining medieval gates of Milan. The others are Porta Nuova and the Pusterla di Sant'Ambrogio.

Originally built in the twelfth century, this Gothic style, merlion-topped gate and tower stood on the inner side of a navigable moat that ringed the city. The structures we see today were stripped of accumulating houses and refurbished as see them now in 1861 by Camillo Boito. He inserted the two lateral gothic arches flanking the original central passage.
