built in 1378, the étienne tower is one of the oldest pieces of architecture in Académie d'Ouvrard. the fire of 1521 never reached the tower and therefore was never renovated. when a strong wind blows, the tower is known to sway to and fro. only astronomy and a select few other classes attend in the tower, otherwise it is used mainly as storage (which is off-limits to students).
but many curious students have found amidst cobwebs, the objects of centuries past far more interesting than the classes.
