    The fifteenth-century tower of Bitonto, commonly called the Angevin tower and erroneously also called the castle, is the largest and most resistant of the twenty-eight towers located along the ancient walls of the city of Bitonto.

    Translated by Google โ€ข

      This Tower served as a defense coordination base and as a last resort if the enemy managed to penetrate the walls. Around it there were the dependent rooms and the small church dedicated to the Virgin of Grace, which had to be demolished in 1615, since on November 15 of the same year the image was moved to the parish church of S. Egidio Vecchio, with its stone altar. limestone.

      The modern building, recklessly leaning against it in 1933, in addition to debasing the integrity of the monumental building, was the cause of the destruction of what still remained in the surrounding land.
