St Nicolas Tower Interesting : Michelin's recommendations

This slightly leaning tower (total height 42 m) is a veritable fortress. It was built in the 14C and named after the patron saint of navigators. An external staircase leads to the main room, from which other staircases lead to additional rooms. These rooms have plans, models and dioramas showing how the site has evolved with time.

    Pros

    Trés jolie vue depuis le sommet de la tour. L'originalité de la tour tient à sa lègère inclinaison, perceptible visuellement depuis l'extèrieur. On le constate aussi à l'intèrieur plus insidieusement, car l'oeil s'habitue rapidement au décor alors que l'équilibre indique une anomalie ce qui s'est traduit dans mon cas par des syptomes voisin du mal de mer !
