From the pre-Christian world of antiquity, in addition to the Celtic legends in Europe, mainly the Roman and Greek ones with their numerous deities have been preserved in the collective memory. The namesake for this low tower built on the coast, "NEPTUN", referred to the god of the sea in Roman legends, and POSEIDON corresponded to him in Greek mythology. In art, i.e. in paintings or as statues, both are usually depicted with a trident, which is, so to speak, their common trademark.
