The location fixed by Vauban around |690. Hidden behind the rocks in order
to be hidden from the view of the sea and of possible enemies, the guardhouse
of Lavillo had a mission of monitoring passing boats.
In the event of suspicious movement, the militiamen on guard alerted the authorities
by coded signals: flags in clear weather, blank cannon shots in foggy weather, fires at night.
