Tour de Bonvouloir, Medieval fortified tower in Juvigny Val d'Andaine, France.
The Tour de Bonvouloir is a fortified tower standing about 26 meters tall, surrounded by defensive moats and remnants of what was once a noble residence. The structure displays typical features of a late medieval defensive building.
Built in 1485, this tower was part of a larger castle complex and served as a strategic defensive position in Normandy. It represents the military architecture of the late medieval period in the region.
The tower served as a symbol of local power for centuries and remains central to the area's sense of medieval history. Locals and visitors recognize it as a defining landmark of the Normandy countryside.
The site is accessible and visitors can explore it freely without advance booking. Local tourism services offer audio guides that lead you through an informative trail around the grounds.
The grounds feature an ethnobotanical garden with heritage pear varieties and plants used for culinary and aromatic purposes. This lesser-known aspect shows how the site extends beyond its military past to preserve traditional plant knowledge.
