Forte St Denis & Porte St Martin in Paris

Posted 1 year ago by musica in response to pinpen's question: There's more than just one triumphal arch in Paris? (give a different answer) .

Well, there actually is. The St Denis Gate is actually a 24 m high triumphal arch built in the 16th century by king Louis XIV to commemorate ... something :) I don't actually know. Not far to the east there's another arch, although much smaller. It seems Paris has no shortage of that :)
