Le Portalet est au coeur historique de la petite ville médiévale d’Uzès, premier Duché de France - oppidum connu en 50 après JC, accompagnant la construction du Pont-du-Gard - évêché puissant du Ve siècle à la Révolution.
The Portalet is located in the heart of the historical centre of the small medieval town of Uzès, the first dukedom in France – oppidum already existing in 50 A.D. built around the same time as the Pont du Gard aqueduct – and a powerful bishopric stretching from the 5th century to the French Revolution.
