Its streets are very steep and narrow, though picturesque. Briançon lies at the foot of the descent from the <a href="/wiki/Col_de_Montgen%C3%A8vre" title="Col de Montgenèvre">Col de Montgenèvre</a>, giving access to Turin, so a great number of other fortifications have been constructed on the surrounding heights, especially towards the east. The <a href="/wiki/Fort_Janus" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Janus">Fort Janus</a> is no less than 1,200 m. above the town. </p><p>The parish church, with its two towers, was built 1703–1726, and occupies a very conspicuous position. </p><p>The Pont d'Asfeld, east of the town, was built in 1734, and forms an arch of 40 m span, thrown at a height of 56 m across the Durance. </p><p>The modern town extends in the plain at the southwest foot of the plateau on which the old town is built and forms the suburb of Ste Catherine. </p><p>Briançon is close to the <a href="/wiki/Parc_National_des_Ecrins" class="mw-redirect" title="Parc National des Ecrins">Parc National des Ecrins</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Vall%C3%A9e_de_la_Clar%C3%A9e" title="Vallée de la Clarée">Vallée de la Clarée</a>. </p><p>On 8 July 2008, several buildings of Briançon were classified by the <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a> as <a href="/wiki/World_Heritage_Sites" class="mw-redirect" title="World Heritage Sites">World Heritage Sites</a>, as part of the "<a href="/wiki/Fortifications_of_Vauban" title="Fortifications of Vauban">Fortifications of Vauban</a>" group. These buildings are: the city walls, Redoute des Salettes, Fort des Trois-Têtes, Fort du Randouillet, <i>ouvrage de la communication Y</i> and the Asfeld Bridge.
