The Tower is an imposing square house with three floors, the first stone of which was laid in 1497. Originally intended for housing the canons, it was connected to the church by a corridor which formed a porch above Rue Saint- Rock.
These buildings were demolished in 1757. The tower only served as a meeting place and housed archives. The canons were secularized in 1450 and the chapter of Vic was then considered a subsidiary of that of Auch.
The Chapter Tower should have been part of a cloistered complex which never saw the light of day. This would have been intended to replace the old cloister located to the north of the church, gradually abandoned by the canons for the benefit of the jurades of the community and burned during the Protestants' visits to Vic in 1569 and 1585. On the eastern facade of this massive building from the beginning of the XNUMXth century, now converted into apartments, we notice two twin ogival windows, located in the upper part of the building. Further down, to the north-east of the facade, we observe the remains of a porch and corbels, the probable starting point of the corridor which connected the tower to the old north apse of the church, today's sacristy.
