Porte Neuve is the name of the gate built into one of the towers of the enclosure wall during the 16th century. This gate can be considered as a symbol of the transition period between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The gate is sometimes named after Francis I in memory of the king's many visits to Crémieu during the Italian wars.
The machicolation (high, uncovered balconies) at the top of the gate were a typical defence feature in medieval times. Further down, however, in the upper third of the gate, we can see a hole. This cannon port presaged the use of gunpowder and heavy artillery, promising much heavier losses in the battles to come.
