The bell towers of Tourmente are emblematic buildings on Mont Lozère. Although they are no longer in use, they have saved many lives since they rang night and day during bad weather, allowing travelers to find their way around. This was particularly the case in fog or blizzard weather (called storms).
These bell towers gradually took on a religious character, as evidenced by the cross crowning that of La Fage.
