Read moreUnderstanding Pey-Berland Tower
• A cathedral bell tower.
Pey-Berland Tower is the free-standing bell tower of the Saint André
Cathedral. It was built so as to be able to provide the cathedral with
larger bells, whose vibrations would have endangered the building. A
great bell weighing eight tonnes, called Ferdinand-André, was installed
in 1869.
• The origin of its name. The
building is named after Archbishop Pey-Berland (circa 1370-1458) who
commissioned the tower, and who was a moving force behind the renewal
of the Church in Aquitaine, which was controlled by the Plantagenets at
the time.

What people think about it Une visite qui en vaut la peine ! Avec 231 marches à grimper, la tour Pey Berland offre une perspective très complète de la ville de Bordeaux. Autant pour le point de vue en altitude avec indication des différents monuments observables depuis sa terrasse, que pour les explications sur l'histoire de la ville depuis l'époque romaine de Burdigala jusqu'à ses plus récents développements. Pour les moins sportifs, soyez rassurés, plusieurs arrêts sont possibles.
