87 m high building, with a cariolle with 49 bells, housing an interpretation center dedicated to its history on site.

No doubt you've already spotted it. This 87-metre-high building has been a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1999. Built between 1661 and 1672 by Louis Ledoux and Vincent Anthony, it boasts a sober Baroque style with classical decorations and characteristic bulbs. Victor Hugo described it as "a coffee pot flanked by four teapots"! Its 49-bell carillon chimes every quarter-hour. On-site: an interpretation center dedicated to its history. Carillon concerts on Sundays at 11.10 a.m. or 2.30 p.m. (see calendar).

Un superbe beffroi avec de magnifique jardins à son pied. Attention les jardins sont fermés le soir.

Pour prendre de la hauteur
Beau batiment, très bien rénové. On peut entendre et voir le mécanisme des cloches se déclencher tous les quarts d'heures. Le personnel à l'accueil est charmant. Les jardins alentours offrent une belle vue sur la ville.

Superbe bâtiment malheureusement gâché par l'horrible auberge de jeunesse tout en béton à son pied.
