  • This medieval tower is taller than just about everything in the old pedestrian part of town. It is hard to miss and is definitely historic. Climb to the top for a view.

  • I honestly thought the climb would be harder. I didn’t get winded, and the stairs were wide enough not to have to “grapevine” sideways up and down them. The tour was really inexpensive, as well as informative! And there were a few breaks in the ascent to learn about the tower’s history, and catch your breath if necessary. And the views are incomparable!
  • It is the best place to enjoy a panoramic view of Dijon city. It is an unforgettable part of your trip to France. To climb the tower, you need to book a tour, which can be done online or at the tourist information office. After booking on the Internet, I had a problem with my schedule, but after consulting with the tourist information office, they changed the time for my booking kindly. Tours are offered in both French and English. Tour guid explains the history of tower with climbing the tower.
  • Took the guided tour because it was included in the city pass. The guide spoke English well, and conducted the tour bilingually. The facts she gave seemed meager, and few went beyond facts and numbers off a Wikipedia page. She also didn't seem very interested in taking or answering questions. A good guide with some passion could make it more interesting without a doubt. View from the top was nice.
  • Buy tour tickets in advance online or at tourism office. 300+ steps up to the top. Nice view at the top.
  • A beautiful square in the center of Dijon with lots of restaurants and local shops to buy products from this area. During summer it's very busy with tourists but that makes the square a living area. The buildings are having the beautiful French architecture which makes the place a must to visit when you're in Dijon
