    The Tower of Pirelonge is a Gallo-Roman stone tower, also called pile. The dimensions of the tower are approximately 6 m by 6 m at the base, for a height of 25 m. It ends with a fairly well-preserved conical crowning.

    The tower is located along the Roman road linking Saintes to Bordeaux.

    Its exact role was long undetermined: terminal, bitter. We know today that it is a funerary monument dedicated to an important person. Within the enclosure of the pile were burials.
