The Trèves Gate is a 14th century construction located in the town of Bastogne in the province of Luxembourg in the Belgian Ardennes.

It is classified on the list of classified real estate heritage of Bastogne and on the list of exceptional heritage of the Walloon Region.

It is part of the ramparts which were erected between 1341 and 1360. Of all these fortifications, the Trier Gate is the only notable element still standing. Indeed, in 1688, the ramparts were demolished on the order of the King of France Louis XIV.

The Trèves Gate then becomes a prison. During the Second World War and more precisely during the siege of Bastogne, in December 1944 and January 1945, bombings heavily destroyed the gate which was rebuilt after the war.

A very beautiful old city gate made of grey granite stone, located away from the road and passable on foot.
