The classification order concerns the roofs, exterior and interior facades, except the two garages located on the left when entering the courtyard, but including the back wall. The well located in the courtyard is also classified.
This building owes its current name to the imposing brick structure built in the 18th century which housed a dovecote and which today overlooks the entrance porch.

This old farm, known as the "Grosse Tour" (in full Ferme de la Grosse Tour), is the most important tourist attraction in the region thanks to its heritage value, impressive views and increasingly its environment and function. It is used to welcome tourists in the Burdinale Mehaigne Natural Park. This is done with information boards, maps and a number of brochures in the parking lot, but in one of the buildings you will also find the information center of the tourist office. In addition, the farm is used as a center for work on the environment and biodiversity. In that context, it is more than advisable to view not only the farm but also the vegetable garden, the fairly large meadow with various constructions in the context of biodiversity and ponds (with a beautiful construction with willow branches). Behind it there is a fascinating standard orchard for the conservation of local fruit varieties. There is a walk in Burdinne that visits three municipalities and was called "Promenade de la Tour". She's leaving here.
