Porte de Versailles, City gate in 15th arrondissement, France.

The Porte de Versailles stands at the border of Paris, marking a transition point between the urban center and the surrounding areas of the city.

Built during the construction of the Thiers wall in the 19th century, this gate served as one of seventeen entrances through the military fortifications of Paris.

The surrounding district houses the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, France's largest exhibition center, which hosts numerous international trade shows throughout the year.

The location connects multiple transportation networks, including metro line 12 and two tram lines, providing direct access to different parts of Paris.

The gate area will feature the Triangle Tower, a 180-meter high structure under construction since 2021, set to modify the district's appearance by 2026.
