Porte du Caylis

Loupian had two imposing gates that made it possible to control the access of residents and travelers to the city and to protect themselves from invasions and invaders.

The police measures of the time, which made the population reluctant to repair the "common fence" or maintain a guard body, were aimed at limiting robbery, smuggling or the spread of epidemics.

Traditionally from the 14th century, the so-called Caylis Gate is crowned all round by a brittany made up of three arcades.

The ornate wall of the circular walkway encased the upper part of the wall, protecting the defenders, who could throw projectiles at the attackers through the openings between the arcades.

Ruelle des Remparts

The alley of the arcades owes its name to the stone arches that are responsible for maintaining the wall.
