La Tour Blanche, construite sur ordre de Richard Coeur de Lion.
office de tourisme d'Issoudun, 15 days ago, said:
Depuis le XIIe siècle, la Tour Blanche domine la ville de sa silhouette élancée. Ouverte au public depuis l'an 2000 entre avril et septembre, ce bel édifice évoque le Moyen Age de Richard Coeur de Lion, Philippe Auguste et Blanche de Castille. De son sommet, on découvre un panorama imprenable sur la ville et ses alentours.
The soaring profile of the White Tower has dominated the town since the 12th century. This fine building, open since 2000 from April to September, conjures up the Middle Ages of Richard the Lionheart, Philippe Auguste and Blanche of Castile. Climb to the top for an unobstructed view over the town and its surroundings.
