The Tour Saint-Jacques is located in the 4th arrondissement of Paris. This Gothic tower is now a free-standing tower. However, in the past, the St. James' Tower was part of a church: the Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie. However, this church was demolished shortly after the French Revolution, leaving the tower as the only remainder of the former church. The sixteenth-century tower now stands in a public park, where Parisians like to picnic on sunny and warm days.

Tour Saint-Jacques is now a protected monument. It has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1998. At the beginning of this century, the tower underwent a major restoration and since 2013 you can visit the Tour Saint-Jacques from the inside at the weekend. The tower is part of a French pilgrimage route to the Spanish pilgrimage site of Santiago de Compostella
