The tower was renamed "dei Francesi" in 1509, who rebuilt it in seven years, after the explosion of a gunpowder deposit destroyed it in many of its parts.

The Torre dei Francesi of the Castle of Brescia is, together with the other towers, among the structures of the fortress that immediately capture the attention.

It is incredible to think that you can reach the top of a tower of a medieval castle on your bike, and once you arrive you can enjoy the view of the entire northern part of the city and the beautiful Monte Maddalena. I do not recommend it on weekends where there are many pedestrians.
