Discover the interior of the New Tower and access a small platform that will offer you one of the most beautiful views of the churches of Saint-Georges and Sainte-Foy.

Remnant of the second enclosure built in 1280, the Tower Neuve did not always have the silhouette we know it. Originally, it was lower and only provided with a crenellated terrace. It was in the 17th century that it acquired this characteristic silhouette.
For security reasons, no access to the balcony is possible once at the top of the tower.
