Porte de Bourgogne Tours

This graceful arch bridge crosses the Garonne River, linking the historic center of the town with the more modern right bank.

You can learn about the history of Bordeaux with a trip to Saint-Michel's Bell Tower. Check out the shops and top-notch restaurants in this romantic area.

A freestanding bell tower with a ghoulish history is what draws most people to this landmark, but the large Gothic church here is equally impressive.

Europe’s ancient walls around communities are commonplace, but the remains of this one look almost new. Sit and admire this storybook-like structure.

One of the oldest belfries in France, this tower was a traditional gateway to the city and once functioned as a prison.

After visiting Church of Saint-Pierre, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Bordeaux. Wander the area's riverfront or simply enjoy one of its lively bars.
