Towers of La Rochelle
€9
What to expect
These three vertiginous towers were medieval fortifications that protected the capital of Aunis from sea invasions. Built majestically against the Atlantic Ocean, they served not only as a defensive role but also as arsenal, keep and daymark. The Lantern Tower, is home to the oldest and highest lighthouse in the Atlantic. The Tower of the Chaîne had a gunpowder magazine. Its architecture has given rise to a labyrinthine and playful itinerary that is sure to delight young and old alike.Opening hours

La visite des 3 tours est impressionnante, chacune avec sa particularité et une exposition. De leur sommet, la vue sur la mer et le port vaut le détour lors d'un passage à La Rochelle. Le prix groupé à 9€ pour les 3 tours est intéressant car il est de 6€ par tour unique.
