La Tour, a well-known bar-restaurant, takes its name from the small tower, which houses a spiral staircase in the inner courtyard of this admirable 16th century Renaissance residence. Dating from the late 16th century-beginning of the 17th, the entrance portal was inspired by Serlio, a famous architect from Bologna. The carved pediment supported by columns is rather exceptional. The inner courtyard was re-built in the 17th century but the original layout is still recognisable with its Renaissance style shell-shaped waterwell in one of the corners, a recurring feature in many mansions of that period (see Hôtel Bullioud). The whole building has been preserved with charm and style (with the help of the restaurant).
