The Vauban Tower (French: Tour Vauban) or Camaret Tower is a defensive structure designed by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban in Camaret-sur-Mer on the west coast of Brittany.
Profile and floor plan of the tower

The hexagonal tower stands on a small peninsula off the coast of Camaret and is 18 meters high, with four floors. It was planned by Vauban starting in 1683, commissioned in 1689, and completed from 1693 to 1697 under the construction supervision of Jean-Pierre Traverse.
