The Barrière des Réservoirs was a tollgate designed by Claude Nicolas Ledoux in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. Part of Ledoux's ambitious late eighteenth-century scheme to ring the city with a wall of tax collection points, this structure exemplified the architect's neoclassical vision for functional civic architecture, though it is now vanished from the Parisian streetscape.
