Text Appearing Before Image: nd chateaux it contains only the scantiestof memories. Down by the river, at the terminus of the uglywire-rope suspension bridge, the modern usefulsuccessor of the more sesthetic works of themediaeval Brothers of the Bridge, is a mostremarkable tower known as the Tour de MauConseil.

Instead there are scattered here andthere about the town many fragmentary re-minders of the days of the first Burgundiankingdom, and of the later city of the counts andDauphins. In 879 A.
