The Sarracen Gate

It opens in the defensive walls of the village of Ramatuelle formed by the outer perimeter of the houses. It has retained its original appearance.

Opening : All year.

From inside, one still distinguishes the slide of the harrow (or Saracen) and hinges and brackets that were used to support the door with 2 panels which was installed in 1792 during the war against Austria and Prussia.
From the outside, one can see two stone arms that were used to support a watch tower (watchtower sentry often placed above a door).
