The Roche-Posay, like many nearby cities, was built in the Middle Ages. So many are the remains you can admire. Once the Bourbon Gate - th century - you are in the Old Town, in the form of a chamber and nestled against the Creuse. Every detail attracts an eye in an atmosphere over time. The city is the largest French and European thermal spa to treat skin diseases. For guided tours of this very pleasant living environment, you can consult the tourist office.

La Roche Posay est une ville fortifiée à laquelle on accède au Moyen-Âge par l’une de ses trois portes: la Porte Bourbon, la Porte de Guyenne (sud, démolie au 19e siècle) et la Porte Saint Louis (nord, disparue).
Seule survivante, la Porte Bourbon (13e siècle) est intégrée dans le rempart, flanquée de deux tours et surmontée d’un mâchicoulis de défense.
Avis aux amateurs de photos, il y a beaucoup de circulation automobile sous cette porte alors il faut être patient pour en prendre une photo sans que le 21e siècle fasse ombrage au 13e siècle.
