Three Towers
Les Trois Tours

**Three historic fortifications built in the 17th-century on a hill overlooking the city. **

The Three Towers used to be part of a larger fortification system that included walls, gates, and other defensive structures. The fortification was supposed to defend the city against attacks by foreign powers. The fortifications were dismantled in the 19th century, and in the process, much of the city's defensive walls were torn down.

However, the Three Towers were spared and remain standing to this day as a testament to the city's rich history and cultural heritage. The Three Towers now serve as a popular tourist spot and have been restored and renovated over the centuries.

The architectural style is a critical example of military architecture. It is distinguished by its strong and sturdy construction, meaning it is designed to provide protection and withstand attacks. Rectangular in shape and featuring thick walls, the Three Towers have always been ready for battle. There are also crenellated battlements on top and small openings for firing weapons.

The Towers also had to be functional as well as battle-ready, so they are designed with a simple and unadorned facade that reflects the utilitarian purpose of the structures. Climb to the top of the towers and enjoy stunning panoramic views of the city and the countryside.
