THE DUNGEON OF THE LORDS OF PONS
The city's most symbolic monument, the only vestige of the fortified castle and one of the best-preserved keeps in Saintonge
A medieval stronghold and stopover on the route to Santiago de Compostela, Pons boasts a rich architectural heritage. Along with the Pilgrims' Hospital, the Donjon is the city's most symbolic building. It is also the only vestige of a fortified castle and one of the best-preserved keeps in Saintonge. At 30 meters high, this monument makes a powerful impression. To enjoy a magnificent view of the medieval town and the banks of the Seugne, you'll need to climb 136 steps.
