The famous stonemason Robert Garcet began building the tower with his own hands in 1948. He was able to complete it 15 years later. The flints used to build the tower give it an atypical style. The tower has seven floors on which there is a terrace guarded by four spectacular sculptures of winged animals. The entire tower is 33 meters high and offers a view of the Geer valley.
