Origin and history

The Tour du Jeu d'Arc de Senlis is a monument located in the city of Senlis, in the Hauts-de-France region. Although its name refers to traditional archery activity, the available sources do not specify its construction period or exact use. This type of tour, often associated with military or playful practices, could reflect the importance of local guilds or societies in the medieval or modern life of the region.

In the historical context of Hauts-de-France, cities like Senlis have often housed buildings related to defence, leisure or corporations. Towers, such as the Arc Game, could serve as a gathering place for community or sporting activities. Their presence bears witness to the social organization and local traditions, although the details specific to this monument remain to be documented.
