Paris Gate, Reims, City gate in Reims, France

The Paris Gate features two stone pillars and stands at the Basses-promenades area along Rue de Bir-Hakeim in Reims.

Built between 1774 and 1776 by locksmiths Lecoq and Revel, the gate welcomed Napoleon during his military campaign on March 14, 1814.

The gate represents the Louis XVI architectural period and received classification as a historical monument in 1919 for its architectural value.

Visitors can find the gate at its current location on Rue de Bir-Hakeim after its 1953 relocation from Avenue de Paris.

The gate moved three times: from Rue de Vesle to Avenue de Paris in 1847, then to its final position in 1953.
