Saint-Triphon Tower

The tower of Saint-Triphon is all that remains of the old castle, with the ruins of the polygonal wall that served as enclosure. The stone consoles that crown the top probably served as a support for a wooden gallery. Apart from tiny loopholes, the dungeon only had a door pierced near the top of the tower. A real fortress!
