Clock Tower Near St. Remy-de-Provence
This clock tower is in a small village near St. Remy-Provence. Note the long, narrow rounded-top windows and the tile roof in the background. Tres charmant as they say in Provence.
Wrought Iron Belfry and Clock Tower
(click for larger image)
This wrought iron belfry is very Provencal in design. This particular one is on the active church in the village of Eygalieres. In days gone by, villagers lived their lives according to the clock tower and church bells, and here, like in many villages, the two instrument to mark the times of the day are combined in one.
