Porte de Courcelles

The Porte de Courcelles is a historic city gate in Paris's 17th arrondissement, located at the intersection of Rue de Courcelles, Boulevard de Reims, and Avenue Stéphane-Mallarmé. It sits between the Porte de Champerret and the Porte d'Asnières and borders the city of Levallois-Perret directly. One unusual feature is that there is no avenue of its own here; instead, Rue de Courcelles runs straight across the city limits. The gate cannot be reached directly from the Boulevard Périphérique that encircles the city, since this stretch of the ring road is covered, which reduces the urban divide. Nearby, you'll find the Square Sainte-Odile, the Centre Européen du Judaïsme on the Place de Jérusalem, and the Claude Debussy Conservatory.
