TOURS-PORTES
Go there and contact
A surprising tower with three walls and no roof, in the heart of the pretty half-timbered streets of the medieval village of Tillac.
The presence of these two important elements of fortification evokes the extent of the castelnau in the Middle Ages. The towers of Mirande and Rabastens were linked by a fortified wall that guaranteed a certain security to the inhabitants. They were the only two points of access to the village. The Tower of Rabastens has a surprising configuration. Also called "Tower open to the throat", made up of only 3 walls, without roof, it closed in a fabulous trap on the assailants who could neither settle nor camouflage themselves there.
