Un des beaux monuments de Lille à proximité du beffroi et de la mairie. Cette porte est malheureusement un peu excentré du coeur de la ville.

Arc de triomphe bâti en 1692 pour célébrer le rattachement de Lille et de la Flandre à la France. C'est le temps de faire une belle photo en souvenir du Roi-Soleil.
