Europe 2015
Monday 28th September The Donjon du Capital
This is the building that the Information Centre is housed in and was built by the magistrates in 1525 when they decided to build a new tower on the same site as the former tower and it was built to house the city's archives. The building continued to be used for this purpose until 1946 and from that time it has housed the Tourist Office.
The turrets on the four corners were restored in the mid 1800s by Viollet-le-Duc who also added the present day belfry.
Back to the Metro and got the train to our home stop of Saint Agne
