A massive square tower, 58 m high, listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this massive 58-meter square tower was erected around 1440, and was attached to the Saint-Eloi church until a fire separated the buildings in 1558. It houses a carillon of 50 bells, whose bumblebee, Jean-Bart, weighs five tons! From the top of the belfry (accessed by elevator and 65 steps), the 360-degree panorama offers a superb view of the city and port. Access to the belfry is available from the tourist office. Good to know: the carillonneur is present every Saturday from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.!

belle vue
Incontournable lieu lors de votre visite pédestre de la ville, ce beffroi abrite aussi l'office du tourisme (très accueillant et compétent, plan de ville, documentations nombreuses et gratuites) accès presque au sommet par un ascenseur et juste quelques marches pour finir.

Ce beffroi est un autre symbole de la ville. Un symbole que l'on retrouve d'ailleurs dans beaucoup d'autres villes du Nord de la France et de Flandres. Monter absolument jusqu'en haut du beffroi et admirer la superbe vue sur la ville de Dunkerque.

Ne pas quitter Dunkerque sans visiter ce beffroi et écouter son carillon. Monter tout en haut et admirer le superbe panorama. Pour mieux l'appréhender, ayez recours à un guide touristique qui vous apportera beaucoup sur l'histoire de Dunkerque.
