A massive square tower, 58 m high, listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this massive 58-meter square tower was erected around 1440, and was attached to the Saint-Eloi church until a fire separated the buildings in 1558. It houses a carillon of 50 bells, whose bumblebee, Jean-Bart, weighs five tons! From the top of the belfry (accessed by elevator and 65 steps), the 360-degree panorama offers a superb view of the city and port. Access to the belfry is available from the tourist office. Good to know: the carillonneur is present every Saturday from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.!

Immer mal wieder, mit dem Lift bis in den Glockenturm dann noch Treppen bis zur Aussichtsfläche. Nicht mit Rollstuhl oder anderen Handycab machbar.

A great view of Dunkirk from the rooftop accessed through a narrow low stairway. Only a little vertigo due to the height of the wall. Lift takes you to the first stage part of the belltower. Staff were very helpful and spoke English very well and without reservation.
