Porte Saint-Georges, Vendôme

The Saint-Georges Gate marks the entrance to the town when crossing the Loir from the south. Its construction dates from the 14th century, although some elements were added later. From the bridge, you can admire the machicolations, medallions and ornamental sculptures present on the structure.

The southern gateway to Vendôme, Porte Saint-Georges has towers on its sides, mostly built in the 14th century. By reaching it by the bridge, one can see its battlements, its ornamental sculptures and its decoration of medallions which date from the Renaissance, added between the 15th and the 16th century.

Personally, I know very well since on June 21, 1997, the mayor sealed the union there with my wife!!!
