Situated in Pierrevert, Porte Saint-Joseph was one of the gates of the ramparts that once surrounded the commune. Constructed in 1701, it remains today as part of the town's historical landscape.
The gate was inscribed in the additional inventory of historical monuments on October 27, 1937. It is one of the four original gates of its rampart, and it still features some elements of the curtain wall.
This structure serves as a preserved piece of the fortifications that once protected the town, marking a specific era of the local heritage.
