The only intact keep in Gironde, a must-see in Saint-Emilion.

The "castel daou rey", otherwise known as the "King's Tower", is the only intact keep in Gironde. This superb 32-metre-high edifice is a must-see in Saint-Emilion. Would you like to take on this witness to the past? You'll have to climb the 118 steps, but the panoramic view over the town is superb. Built in the 13th century, the keep was used as a defensive citadel until the end of the 16th century. It is used to proclaim the Judgement of New Wine and the Ban des Vendanges.

On ne peut pas rater la tour du Roy à Saint-Emilion tant elle domine les autres bâtiments. On peut monter à son sommet, ce qui offre ainsi une vue sur toute la ville et les vignobles aux alentours.

Très belle vue sur les vignes de Saint-Emilion et sur le bourg, l'entrée pour l'ascension est payante (moins de 5 euros de mémoire) et il y a pas mal de marches donc pas à conseiller aux PAMR.
