A legend has grown up around the tower: it was besieged by the French in 1768. The responsible captain Casella, who was abandoned by his fearful soldiers, had to defend himself against the overwhelming force of the French. He put a rifle in each window and ran frantically from one rifle to another, pulling the trigger. The French had the impression that there was a whole troop of soldiers in the tower and were ready to negotiate. So the tower was saved.

The watchtower towers high above the famous Nonza Beach.
There is a souvenir shop in the watchtower.
The bluff on which the tower is built offers some fantastic views of the beach and the village of Nonza.
