This bell tower, also called the "Tour Louis XVI", marks a key historical moment: it was here that King Louis XVI was arrested on 21 June 1791 during his failed attempt to escape from revolutionary France. Built in 1793 on the site of the choir of the old Saint-Gengoult church, the tower has been listed as a historical monument since 1989. A silent witness to a turning point in French history.
