Fenioux - Lanterne des morts

Fenioux - Lanterne des morts
The "lanterne des morts" in Fenioux is one of the nicest "lanterns of the dead" in France. It was probably erected within the 12th century.
A spiral staircase (33 steps) is inside. Excavations proved, that the site was used for pagan rites already during Celtic times.

I had been here before, but this time, I found the door open, so I could enter the tower..
