It is one of the oldest monuments in the city. The Porte de Paris is a remnant of the fortifications that surrounded the city in the Middle Ages. It was built in the 14th century to protect the southern entrance to the city. It is Gothic in style with two round towers and a pointed arch. You can admire the architecture and history of the gate, which also served as a prison and a museum.
