Porte de Châteauroux, Historical gate in medieval district, Châteauroux, France.
The Porte de Châteauroux features solid stone construction with fifteenth-century architectural elements incorporated into its thick walls.
This fortified entrance, registered as a historical monument since 1973, formed an essential component of the medieval city defense system.
The carved stones and construction techniques demonstrate the traditional methods of builders from the Centre-Val de Loire region.
The gate stands at 2 bis rue de la Vieille-Prison, near Château Raoul and several restaurants in the historical center.
Medieval stonemason marks remain visible on the limestone blocks, providing evidence of the craftsmanship techniques from that period.
