Beffroi d'Amiens

The Beffroi d'Amiens is a prominent medieval tower serving as a historical landmark and former watchtower. Constructed as part of the city's fortifications, it stands as a testament to Amiens' rich history. While climbing the tower is typically restricted to pre-booked groups, the surrounding square is a vibrant hub, particularly during weekend markets. The tower's architecture features light stone and a distinctive grey tiled roof. Despite surviving wartime damage, it is now surrounded by more modern buildings.
