The ancient tower like an arrow to pierce the sky....

Avenches (Switzerland)

I have always felt fascinated by the medieval castles’ towers.
There is a sense of mystery and also of shelter, a way to feel secluded by a reality, which was perceived often as hostile.
Then there is, in our collective imaginary, the idea of fairy-tale, with a prisoner princess who look from her narrow window toward the horizon...
Maybe one day a knight will come to set her free....
