Tourreluque
Tourreluque preserves a medieval defensive tower near the thermal quarter, northwest of the old town. Its masonry offers a surviving fragment of fortifications among buildings from later periods.

Keep exploring Aix-en-Provence with our travel partners.
Look at the tower's form and its relationship with the remaining wall rather than treating it as an isolated curiosity. These remnants help explain a city that was once enclosed, in contrast with the broad promenades and extensions developed later. The value is an exterior encounter with the former defences, with access through any neighbouring private grounds kept separate from the public approach.
