Porte d'Arroux, Roman gate monument in Autun, France
The Porte d'Arroux features two main arches measuring 7.77 meters high and 4.43 meters wide, along with two smaller pedestrian passages.
Built in the first century AD, this northern entrance marked the end of the Cardo Maximus, the main north-south road of Roman Augustodunum.
The gate stands as a significant example of Roman architectural engineering, displaying classical orders in its upper gallery with Corinthian columns.
Located at 35 Rue du Faubourg d'Arroux, this monument remains accessible throughout the year without entrance fees for visitors exploring Autun.
The structure originally included two flanking towers and a medieval chapel, though these additional elements no longer exist today.
