Tours de Navarre et d'Orval

Impasse du Champ Navarre, 52200 Langres, France

Haute-Marne

Grand Est

This work is located on a plot called the field of Navarre, today occupied by a campsite, having belonged to the counts of Champagne, also kings of Navarre. This is the most monumental artillery tower: its diameter of 28 meters, its height of 20 meters and its twenty gunnery embrasures spread over four levels make it an extraordinary structure. The artillery of its terrace was to protect the plateau located in front of the Porte des Moulins. Almost completed in 1515, after only four years of work, it was raised by 2.5 meters to increase the reach of the cannons installed on its terrace. This transformation during the construction led to the installation of a second level of gargoyles and the construction of a new tower, the Orval tower, protecting a spiral artillery ramp. This allowed the cannons to be moved to the top of the tower of Navarre, away from enemy fire.
