you could think about removing historic=monument, it doesn't seem
appropriate for a gate IMHO. See the wiki:

"An object, especially large and made of stone, built to remember and
show respect to a person or group of people
Monuments are often built in homage to past or present
political/military leaders or religious figures / deities"

at least I do not know about memorial "gates". Maybe you are talking
about an "arch"?

cheers,
