Built in 1623, the Notre-Dame gate marks the northern entrance to the city. At that time, city gates, protected by bastions, freed themselves from their defensive role and became symbols of the wealth of cities. With its “diamond point” hardware and its rich sculpted decoration, the Notre-Dame gate is representative of the Baroque style. The sun that adorns the upper part was added after the capture of Cambrai by Louis XIV.

A hike to Porte Notre Dame in Cambrai will take you to one of the most beautiful monuments in the city. It is an old gate of the medieval fortifications, built in the 14th century and renovated in the 17th century. With rich baroque decoration, a diamond-shaped stone pattern and a coat of arms of the city, you can admire the architecture and history of the gate, which was once the entrance to the cathedral and the episcopal palace.
