Initially planned next to the church, to serve both as a steeple and a clock, the tower was finally built in the village in 1816. The bell tower was built by an ironworker from Draguignan Mr. Ollevary. Until the late 19th century, it was a tradition to welcome the "vagrants and poor wretches" in the villages. They were lodged in the tower and received food. Following complaints of the inhabitants, this accommodation was abolished in 1904.
