A feudal-style tower, a little-known curiosity in the capital and a vestige of the Hôtel de Bourgogne in Paris, the Tour Jean Sans Fright

This feudal-looking tower, at the foot of which stands the courtyard of a school, is a little-known curiosity in the capital. It is a vestige of the Hôtel des Ducs de Bourgogne, which was built against Philippe Auguste's enceinte. It owes its origins to Duke Jean I of Burgundy, who in the 15th century sought protection from the supporters of his cousin Louis d'Orléans, the brother of the King of France, whom he had just had assassinated... The tour includes a spiral staircase topped by a vaulted ceiling with magnificent carved plant decoration, leading to the bedrooms.

Visite passionnante et très instructive de ce monument discret en retrait du boulevard, donc facilement ignoré

Deux expos très intéressantes sur l'architecture de la rue Reaumur et l'hygiène au moyen-âge sans une foule considérable ce qui est appréciable.

Mérite un énorme coup de frais. D'autant qu'il ne reste pas beaucoup de bâtiments médiévaux à Paris. Rénover le médiocre jardinet en jardin des simples serait un beau projet
