It served to protect the coastal inhabitants from Saracen pirate raids, which were frequent during this period. As on Mallorca, it was part of a network of towers that sounded the alarm with signal fires when pirates were seen.
The circular floor plan is typical of Renaissance defenses (from the 15th/16th centuries onwards), as they were better able to ward off cannonballs.
Unfortunately, it cannot be climbed, but it makes a beautiful postcard motif.
