Dating back to the first half of the eighteenth century, it was built to guarantee the drainage of the Canal Bianco into the sea and prevent the sea water from rising at high tide.
Torre Palù is one of the best preserved hydraulic buildings, made up of 5 lowered basins with the vinciane doors and the bulkheads still functioning, according to the automatic opening and closing technique on water pressure.
The construction is in brick and arranged on two floors; the denomination of tower indicates a defensive function, as well as hydraulic.
