    The Punta Giglio tower, or "Torre de la Punta del Lliri" in Alghero Catalan, was built in the first half of the 16th century, but was presumably abandoned in the 18th century. After the Great War, the Royal Navy built a significant military battery around the ancient fortification, which was used during the Second World War; on 27 October 1943 the Royal Army took possession of the site, which was abandoned at the end of the conflict.

    From the tower you can enjoy a wonderful view of the sea!
