Remains of a tower now a museum
This gate is one of 2 that have outlived the walls of Ceret, dating back to the 13th century. Beside the door itself one can find the remains of a tower, now a museum. The French are masters at the art of turning any debris into a monument and this stretch of wall is no exception. The door, which gives access to the old population is urbanized as a very nice park and opens in what was formerly the coastal path, which is now a very nice woodland walk abound the Parisian-style cafes. The door opens towards Spanish lands, an act for which it is also known by the Moors Gate.
