Tips
Ancient observation tower, called "Torre Astense" because it faces towards Asti. It has a particular characteristic: it has only three sides, the innermost side, facing the castle, is not there. Since it is an observation tower and not a defense one, it is likely that it was done to save money, but the signs don't say this! Immediately behind, inside, do not miss the church of the Confraternity of Santa Croce.
