Tour Magne

The Tour Magne is a tower on Mont Cavalier, the highest point of the Roman walls of Nîmes, which had about 80 towers. Under Augustus it was built around an older Gallic tower of dry stone, doubling its height to 36 metres; about 32 metres remain. An inner staircase of some 140 steps leads to a platform with views over the city.
