Accessibility
The Round Tower has many visitors. Please note that the tower has a maximum capacity for guests that our staff is required to comply with.
During peak hours, queuing and periodic breaks in ticket sales may occur to manage guest flow, but the wait rarely exceeds more than 20 minutes.
Groups of 40 people or more will not be let in all at once and need to divide themselves into smaller groups.
The Round Tower is a listed building without elevator and with a narrow staircase at the top. Unfortunately, it is not well suited for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
