Tour Charlemagne

Tower Tours, Centre-Val de Loire, France

What to expect

The Charlemagne Tower, located in Tours, offers an exceptional view of the city from its belvedere. The tower was once part of a medieval collegiate church dedicated to Saint Martin, which was destroyed between 1789 and 1802. Visitors can discover the tower and its history through a guided tour, but it's not recommended for young children under 3 years old, people with heart problems, people with vertigo, or pregnant women due to the 248 steps. The tower is a great spot to explore the city's heritage and enjoy the 'Parcours Lumiere' light displays' at dusk
