Tour Saint-François

Climb a former Franciscan bell tower in Old Nice for a 360-degree view, if its limited visiting dates match your stay.

Tour Saint-François

Why go

This is a more vertical, close-up view of the old town than Castle Hill. The 261-step spiral climb ends above the rooftops, but limited openings and physical demands make it a planned visit rather than a casual detour. The historic clock tower is also worth noticing from below.

What to look for

  • Historic clock tower above Old Nice
  • 360-degree rooftop and hill panorama

Useful to know

  • Check the published visiting date; the climb has 261 narrow steps and is unsuitable for some visitors.
