The watchtower, called Torre De Bosis, is one of the most characteristic structures of the Portonovo Bay.
Built in 1716 by Pope Clement XI Albani, as a defensive garrison during the period of the Spanish succession, it was purchased at the end of the 19th century by the Ancona poet Adolfo De Bosis and later became the summer residence of his son Lauro.
Today it is the seat of a cultural association.translated by•May 4, 2021
