The two upper floors are furnished as an apartment, with corresponding windows; rectangular window slots in the storeys below. A helmet roof with a four-sided baroque lantern from the end of the 17th century closes the tower. The access to the upper floors is via a covered flight of stairs on the north side; Ogival entrance.
