Much more than mere architectural features, the gates of Besançon tell stories. Between protection and passage, they draw the eye and reveal the function of the buildings as well as the status of their occupants. Triumphal arch, church gate or house door: every passageway symbolises a change. Doors require special architectural observation. Follow a guide and be surprised by the richness and diversity of the gates of Bisonne.
