This place is very fascinating. The circular tower, of evident Lombard origin, stands alone overlooking the Alento valley. From here, in fact, you have a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape. It can be reached either from the Abbey of San Liberato, through the Alento gorges (shorter route), or from the state road to Pretoro (longer route).

A beautiful mystical place. Perfect for a short break.

The tower overlooks the valley through which the Alento River flows. Half intact (and the other half collapsed), it's certainly a landmark for a beautiful hike and a view that sweeps across these lands.
