Porte Dauphine, City gate in 16th arrondissement, France
The Porte Dauphine marks a western entry point to Paris, featuring architectural elements that align with the urban planning of the French capital.
The gate stands as part of the former Thiers wall, constructed during the 19th century expansion of Paris to define the city's boundaries.
The Art Nouveau entrance to the metro station at Porte Dauphine, designed by Hector Guimard, received monument status recognition in February 2016.
The location serves as the western terminus of Paris Metro Line 2, connecting to RER C at nearby Avenue Foch station and Tram Line 3b.
The metro station features two diverging half-stations linked by a narrow loop, maintaining its original cream-colored tile decoration from 1900.
