Step into a slice of medieval France that refuses to disappear. This 14th-century dovecote, Créteil's oldest surviving structure, was literally moved 45 meters in 1971 to escape the wrecking ball and now stands surreal and proud among 20th-century apartment blocks. Inside, 1,500 nesting boxes spiral upward in a feat of medieval engineering that still baffles today.
