About
The Tower of Michel de Montaigne, on the borders of the Bordeaux area and the Perigord, was Montaigne's refuge. He wrote his book, "les Essais", in this tower between 1571 and 1592. Coming here is an invitation to follow in the footsteps of the famous philosopher, through a complete evocation of his life, his time, his work and his thoughts.
