Tour de la Porte Haute

Overlooking the town at 12 meters tall, the Tour de la Porte Haute is a key medieval relic of its defensive history. Built in the 15th century, this watchtower played a crucial role in protecting the city walls. It still retains its original arrow slits, bearing witness to its past military use. Located right next to the Doctor Schweitzer Museum, it offers visitors a glimpse into the local heritage while recalling the strategic functions it once served.
