Porte Chaumont, City gate in 19th arrondissement, France.
Porte Chaumont stands as an entrance point to Paris, featuring architectural elements characteristic of nineteenth-century French municipal infrastructure design and construction methods.
The gate emerged during the 1860 Paris expansion project, marking a transition from earlier defensive structures to modern urban access points within the metropolitan framework.
Located in a neighborhood shaped by successive waves of immigration, the gate represents a crossing point between different communities that contributed to local development.
Situated near route nationale 3, the gate connects to major highways and provides convenient access for vehicles and pedestrians entering northeastern Paris.
The gate's elevation offers views of Paris's northern districts, positioned at coordinates 48.8864°N and 2.39415°E within the city's historical fortification system.
