The Port de France is one of two surviving city gates on the Fabourg de France. Two stately round towers guard the entrance. If you leave the city here, you can take the somewhat steep footpath along the city wall to the "Tour de Coq" and thus to Porrentruy Castle right around the corner. The second city gate is much less spectacular. Both entrances to the city are at the respective ends of the street.
