Saint-Jacques Tower

The Tour Saint-Jacques is a monument located in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, France, at the intersection of Rue de Rivoli with Rue Nicolas Flamel. This 52-metre Flamboyant Gothic tower is all that remains of the former 16th-century Church of Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie, which was demolished in 1797, during the French Revolution, leaving only the tower.
What remains of the destroyed church of Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie is now considered a national historic landmark.
