    What kind of building is this and what are these gates / doors used for?

    At first I thought this was a fire station but the realized two of these are like pedestrian doors.

      The French really like their protests/riots.

      I’d imagine riot doors are a must for many downtown areas.

      I don’t know about this specific building, so this is just speculation, but it looks like an old public building, something like a school, city hall, could even be a market or public bathroom. My guess is those door are new, and a way to close an otherwise open entry to a courtyard.
