The Waterpoort (also known as Porta Regia, and Coninckxpoort) is a monumental gate located in the Zuiderdokken, Zuid Antwerp, Belgium. The gate was sculpted by Huibrecht van den Eynde and Johannes van Mildert, and was erected in 1624. It originally served as a water gate on the Scheldt river, as well as an honorary gate to King Philip IV of Spain.
