Le Perthus Pyramid, designed by Ricardo Bofill and completed in 1976, is a landscape architecture work marking the France–Spain border at the Col du Perthus. Constructed from brick and soil, the pyramid stands beside the A9 motorway just north of the frontier, serving as a symbolic monument to the historic region of Marca Hispanica. Conceived in 1974, the structure represents Bofill's distinctive approach to land-based design during a period of significant architectural experimentation in Mediterranean Europe.
