The Porte Sainte-Croix is a historic monument in Châlons-en-Champagne, a city in the Grand Est region, in France. It is a gate built in 1769 in the style of a triumphal arch, in honor of Marie Antoinette, wife of King Louis XVI. The gate was part of the old city walls and has a tower, a rose window and a tympanum with the Last Judgment. The gate can only be visited with a guide.

The former city gate from the 16th century was later converted into a triumphal arch.
