Visit of the Tower of Navarre in Langres
As you pass through the fortified city of Langres, come and discover the Tour de Navarre, the most imposing of its artillery towers. You won't believe your eyes...
20 m high, 28 m in diameter and 7 m thick walls. That's the Tour de Navarre, Langres' most monumental artillery tower. To be more precise, it's a double artillery tower. Built in a record 4 years (incredible, isn't it?), this Renaissance defensive ensemble, unique in France, is sure to impress. Young and old alike will be dazzled by its interior architecture, including two powerfully vaulted and casemated rooms. And that's not counting its magnificent oak framework illuminated in a variety of colors!
Needless to say, a visit to this extraordinary structure is one of the must-do activities in Langres. Whether you're on your own, with a partner, friends or family. The Pays de Langres Tourist Office is also offering two fun tours of this historic monument, specially designed for children. The first is for 6 to 9 year olds, while the second is for 9 to 12 year olds. The ideal way to learn while having fun.

About
Office de Tourisme du Pays de Langres
Langres, an acropolis and protector of many treasures, is bathed in a magical, poetic atmosphere.
Strolling along the ramparts of this fortified city is a journey for the mind and senses. By caressing the grain of the stone, you become a halberdier protecting the stronghold, while your gaze is lost in a distant, soothing horizon. From the earliest times to the Age of Enlightenment, the hilltop town has preserved its treasures to become a jewel that comes alive with tours, shows and concerts. At the foot of the plateau, the wooded expanses of the Parc National de Forêts open up to generous landscapes, bathed in fertile, healing waters. Breathe in, nature is king here! In the skilful hands of its basket makers, wicker strands bend and intertwine to create baskets and decorative masterpieces.
A land of space and freedom, Pays de Langres knows how to arouse every passion...
The Pays de Langres Tourist Office is at your disposal to help you organize your stay.
