Porte Rouge, Medieval gate in Monaco
The Porte Rouge stands as a red-colored stone entrance with classical architectural features in the Saint Michel district of Monaco.
Built during Monaco's fortification period, this gate served as a crucial defense point and controlled access to the principality through the centuries.
The gate represents a meeting point between Monaco's old quarter and modern districts, marking a transition in architectural styles and urban development.
Visitors can reach the Porte Rouge by taking bus lines 1 or 2 from Monte Carlo, stopping at the Saint Michel station.
The gate's position offers a direct connection to the Rampe Major, an ancient road leading to panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea.
