A watchtower symbolizing the omnipotence of the Counts of Champagne and a place of refuge, watch or prison in Provins.

A major symbol of the medieval city, the Tour César dominates Provins with its imposing silhouette. This XIIᵉ century keep, built by Henry I the Liberal, blends octagonal shape and square structure, reflecting a complex architecture. Formerly a place of refuge, prison and watchtower, it intrigues with its name evoking an ancient origin. At the top, a breathtaking view awaits visitors under the impressive roof structure. New for 2024: the tour becomes interactive thanks to an audioguide accessible via QR code on your smartphone.

Belle vue panoramique d’en haut ! Les escaliers sont etroits mais cela vaut le detour. Passez par ici

Très belle tour médiéval, nous pouvons grimper jusqu'en haut et bénéficier d'une magnifique vue sur Provins. De nombreux panneaux, tout au long de l'ascension, nous permettent d'en apprendre plus sur le lieux et ses alentours. Je recommande vivement !

Pour 5€, n’hésitez pas, faites le ! La vue panoramique vaut vraiment le détour, mais pas que ! La charpente du clocher est juste extraordinaire ! Personnellement je n’ai jamais rien vu de semblable.
