Tower offering a magnificent panoramic view of the Dinan region and the Rance valley.
Erected at the end of the 15th century by the Dinannais bourgeoisie, the Clock Tower towers 47 meters above the medieval town. In 1501, Duchess Anne granted the Dinannais the privilege of owning a clock in their communal tower. The mechanism, manufactured in Nantes and still visible today, is one of the oldest in Europe. The climb up the steps is rewarded by a breathtaking panorama of the Dinan region and the Rance valley. Also worth seeing is the film Dinan in 1750, based on computer-generated images.
