Square tower transformed into a belfry in the century, bearing the name of Jacquemart in Romans-sur-Isère.

Of the medieval ramparts of the town, only the Jacquemart tower remains. This square tower, transformed into a belfry in the 15th century, bears the name Jacquemart, a diminutive of Jacques-Marteau and the medieval nickname of the village bell ringers. The clock of this belfry was installed in 1425. In 1789, the man was disguised as a national guard, then as a Polish lancer, and under the Restoration, as a troubadour. From 1830, it is a volunteer who is responsible for ringing the bells. Today he is a puppet who watches over the town of which he has become the emblem.

Monument incontournable de Romans. On ne peut pas passer dans la ville sans le voir, ou l'entendre. et découvrir par la même occasion le centre historique de la ville. Beau concert de carillon pendant l'été...

small catch that from the top of its belfry sounds every hour with its hammer. Children love to it by eating the cake, Novels speciality: .

Around the square is full of shops shoes because Romanesque is also the capital shoe (see the museum)
