Why is it feminine?

Entrata is feminine because it derives from the Latin feminine past participle "intrata" (from "intrare," to enter), which retained the feminine gender marker "-a" when it evolved into Italian. This "-a" ending became the standard feminine singular marker in Italian, so any noun ending in "-a" derived from Latin feminine forms naturally became feminine.
