Porte Bazée, Roman gate in Reims, France.

The remains of Porte Bazée feature carved stones and architectural elements from the Gallo-Roman wall of the ancient city of Durocortorum.

Built between 180 and 230 CE, this monumental gate measuring 13 meters in height served as the southern entrance to the Roman city.

The name derives from 'porta Basilicaris', indicating its function as an access point to the churches in the city suburbs.

The remains of the monument's pillar are located near the University College refectory, accessible from Rue de l'Université.

An ancient bas-relief depicting a triton accompanied by Cupid and Venus once decorated this monumental gate.
