The Tour du Plô, built at the beginning of the 13th century by the Viscount of Limoges, is the oldest civil monument in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche. She faces the college. The wall overlooking the bell tower of the collegiate has no opening, probably because of the rivalry between the Viscount of Limoges and the chapter.
