A tower made of Namur stone, topped by a bulbous slate roof, and protecting one of the city's entrance gates
This ashlar tower is topped by a bulbous slate roof. Namur once had an older belfry on its citadel, but after its destruction in the 18th century, the Tour Saint-Jacques took over. Built in 1388, this 20-metre-high tower was part of the third city wall. Originally twice its original height, it protected one of the city's entrance gates. The building is one of around fifty regional belfries (in Belgium and northern France) listed as Unesco World Heritage Sites.

Ce beffroi est très bien conservé malgré certains dégâts dus aux bombardements durant la deuxième guerre mondiale.

Aussi appelé la Tour Saint-Jacques, le beffroi de Namur est une jolie structure de pierres malheureusement trop discrète. La superbe facade de l'ancienne bourse l'eclipse. Il s'agit d'un monument UNESCO qui peut être visité sur demande.

Beau monument à voir de l'extérieur, proche de la Place d'Armes et pourtant souvent oublié lors d'une visite de Namur à pied, à recommander!
The best at Namur and around
