The gate that delimited the Gallo-Roman town to the south.
Practical information
Historic monument or place to visit in METZ, on the theme(s) Military interest, awarded with the Label Listed historic monument (MH).
A monumental gateway that formed part of the medieval ramparts, the Porte Serpenoise marks the southern boundary of the Gallo-Roman town. In 1903, the dismantling of the city's fortifications led to its relocation and redesign. The German authorities reduced it to around a quarter of its original size and crowned it with four corner towers taken from the old fortifications. This symbolic monument in the city remains a reminder of times gone by, thanks to engraved inscriptions recalling episodes in its history.
