The Porte Bleue is a work of art located on the RAVeL of Line 87 in Lessines, Belgium. The work of art is a tribute to the surrealist painter René Magritte, who was born in Lessines. The blue door symbolizes the opening to the painter's imagination and surrealism, as well as the renewal of Lessines, an ambitious city in transformation.

The gate which was located at the entrance to the entity of Lessines has been moved to the start of the ravel, 100m from the industrial road and the N42, still on the ravel, but closer to the town.
