The Tour Carbonnière is a medieval watchtower built at the end of the 13th century to protect the fortified town of Aigues-Mortes. Located in the middle of the Camargue marshes, it served as a strategic entrance point and lookout. Today, visitors can climb the tower and enjoy a panoramic view of the surrounding landscapes and wildlife.
