Porte Dijeaux, Triumphal arch in Bordeaux, France
The limestone neoclassical arch features decorative elements with two distinct facades, displaying both municipal and royal symbols of power and authority.
Originally named Dauphin's Gate to honor future King Louis XVI, this western entrance to Bordeaux dates back to Roman times and was rebuilt in 1748.
The gate's architectural details include Bordeaux's coat of arms, the Grosse Cloche towers beneath a leopard, and royal symbols like the crown and fleur de lys.
Located at 90 Rue de la Porte Dijeaux near Place Gambetta, this monument remains accessible to visitors throughout the day and night.
The name Porte Dijeaux evolved from earlier versions such as Porte des Gious or Porte Jovis, reflecting the linguistic changes through centuries.
