Tower located in Baccarat, called the Tour des Voués, measuring 30 m high and 14.7 m wide.
In 1305, Henry I had a tower built on a rock overlooking the Meurthe plain, called the Tour des Voués (which means defenders). This position was strategic to defend the city against the serfs. This tower is 30 m high and 14.7 m wide. As for the walls, pierced with windows and loopholes, they are nearly 3 m thick. The ramparts and the castle of Baccarat are still accessible through a vast vaulted passageway still used today by the residents. See you at the foot of this seven centuries old tower...
