It is commonly called the Public Clock Tower. It is a building with a simple and elegant structure, tall and slender, imposing and majestic. It stands on Piazza Don Bosco, in front of the mother church.
It stands on the ruins of the ancient Church of the Madonna delle Grazie. Of this church, of which we do not know much, the old bell is still visible, on the back of the civic tower, placed on a bell gable. On the façade overlooking Piazza Don Bosco, the clock and the coat of arms of the town are placed. Until a few decades ago it was used as offices, including the duty.

The square-plan tower rises on four levels, each with different architectural and decorative features. The ground floor is delimited by rounded columns at the corners and on its facade there is a sundial indicating the value of the latitude of the city (40°42'18''). The first floor follows, contained by a pair of pilasters with a small balcony in the center with a broken and curved tympanum with plant decorations.
