    The Porte de Mars is a city gate from Roman times and the last vestige of the four portae that marked the city entrances in antiquity. The complex probably dates back to the beginning of the 3rd century. Thanks to its integration into the medieval city fortifications and later into the bishop's castle from the 12th century, it was able to survive the centuries.
    In the 19th century, the remains of the city gate were uncovered on the initiative of the architect Narcisse Brunette and the preserved western part was restored.

      The Arch of Honor dates from the 3rd century and is the oldest monument in the city. For a long time it was integrated into the medieval city wall as a city gate, only in the 19th century. The surrounding buildings were demolished to free him.
      A great monument of Roman architecture.

        Currently (05/25/23) the Porte de Mars, built by the Romans in the 3rd century, is unfortunately under renovation.
        We're not the only ones looking sadly at the construction site cladding.
