The barrière Pigalle is a former tollgate in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, designed by Claude Nicolas Ledoux. Built as part of the late eighteenth-century wall of the Farmers-General that ringed Paris, it exemplifies Ledoux's neoclassical approach to utilitarian architecture, transforming a purely functional structure into a monument of austere elegance.
