Walking thru an alley in Vieux, Nice. A view of the clocktower at the Rusca Palace built in 1775 as a military barracks. It's now the Palais De Justice. Though the bell tower resembles a church I haven't read where it was ever a church. I believe it was more symbolic. #CôteD'Azur #VieuxNice #France #alley #RuscaPalace #1775 #ClockTower #OldTownNice #PalaisRusca
