A square tower that may have served as the bell tower of the village's former church, it is one of the few remaining intact monuments.
The remarkably well-preserved gateway to the charming bastide town of Fourcès dates back to the 13th century. Square in shape, it features an archway and passage under a pointed barrel vault. It appears to be attached to the village's former church and may have served as a bell tower. This passageway provides access to the old parapet walk. The Clock Tower poses a riddle for historians: who is the man depicted on the outer wall? This fortified tower is one of the few monuments left intact by Charles VII's troops in 1488.

Entre l'église et le chemin de ronde, cette tour de l'horloge offre un passage (sous la tour !) qui mène au centre du village. Et au sommet, une cloche et son clocheton. Superbes pierres qui nous parlent.
