    The Paleologa Tower of San Salvatore Monferrato was built in 1413 by the Marquis Teodoro Paleologo del Monferrato.
    It was part of the defense and sighting system of the Marquisate of Monferrato.
    The tower, restored in the 1930s, is 24 meters high.
    From the hill of the tower, 257 meters high, you can enjoy a splendid view over the entire Alps and most of the Monferrato. It has a large breach on the south-east side which is located in the point where, in ancient times, there was the entrance portal.
    In the first war of independence the tower was used by the Sardinian army as an observation point for the first military operations.
    Next to the tower there is a low building, once entirely underground, which was used as a cistern for collecting rainwater.
