Porte Dorée de Fréjus, Roman gate in Fréjus, France.

The Porte Dorée stands as a stone and brick structure with mixed masonry patterns, featuring architectural elements from ancient Roman constructions.

Built in the third century, this archaeological remnant was originally part of Roman thermal baths near the ancient port of Fréjus.

The name Porte Dorée originated from the discovery of golden-headed nails during initial excavations of this historical monument.

Located at 63 Rue des Moulins in Fréjus, the gate remains accessible to visitors throughout the year near other Roman monuments.

Archaeological research revealed that despite its name suggesting a gate, the structure actually represents an arcade from ancient Roman baths.
