    To visit it you need to make about thirty meters in a private property. It's always open, so I think you can go in and take a simple photo.

      A very nice tower, note the defense architecture above the gate.

        Tradition has it that a rooster crowed during the night raids of the pirates, giving the villagers time to prepare the defense. In fact, this tower was used as an advanced cliff for the nearby hamlets of Santa Lucia and Torre Villotta. The entrance is raised by 1 m. perhaps to better resist the blows of the ram. A window with a crescent arch is walled up and on the façade there is only a window. From 1734 to 1805 it was the favorite destination of the archaeologist and scholar Ciro Saverio Minervini who often met with the archpriest Giovine, owner of Torre Falcone. It is one of the oldest.
