The Gate, resident at Place du Maréchal Leclerc, stands tall across the eons. In 1920, it was granted historical status, in 1938 it was disassembled, and then in 1982 it was raised again. This monument speaks of not just its own trajectory but also that of the city, a tale that began in 1746 when it was constructed, precious stone in the city's defensive crown.
