Porte des Bombes is a Baroque ornamental gate in Floriana, Malta, built in 1721 as an advanced gate within the faussebraye of the Floriana Lines. Designed by Charles François de Mondion, it was enlarged with a second archway in 1868. The ramparts on either side have since been demolished, leaving it resembling a triumphal arch. It is listed as Grade 1 heritage.
