In the Jungle there are numerous fortified farmhouses. They are not castles or strong houses, although most retain a tower that was essential for their defense and survival.

In the heart of the plain, the pinnacle of the Ponsa tower stands out above the rest of the buildings, a five-story quadrangular fortification attached to a farmhouse with Gothic and Renaissance windows, loopholes and a more modern gallery in the upper part. All these elements are testimonies of its long history.
