Porte Brunet, City gate in 19th arrondissement, France.

The Porte Brunet stands at the intersection of Avenue de la Porte-Brunet with Boulevards d'Indochine and d'Algérie in northern Paris.

During the 1860 Paris expansion, this gate marked the entry point from the commune of Pré-Saint-Gervais into the capital city.

The gate area includes the Hérold Garden, which replaced a former hospital and provides green spaces for local residents.

Visitors can access the gate via Metro line 7 bis at Danube station or Tramway line 3b at Butte du Chapeau Rouge station.

The construction of the Paris ring road transformed the original three-branch fork into an underground passage connecting different neighborhoods.
