                <description><![CDATA[La Rochelle's trademark is the three towers at the entrance to the Old Harbour, the remains of the original fortifications. Picture postcard lovely, the three towers are a must-do for the visitor. The St-Nicolas tower is the largest and most impressive. La Chaine (14th century) is on the opposite side and it was from here that a large chain was drawn up at night to restrict entrance and exit from the harbour. The spire-topped Lanterne, farther along the ancient city wall, was originally a lighthouse. It costs 5 euros for each tower but if you plan on visiting more than one buy a multi-day pass for all three for 10.50 euros. Comprehensive guide folders are free at each tower. Great views, great history lesson.]]></description>
