Torre Testa is a coastal tower of Salento located near Brindisi, in the locality of Giancola. It was built to defend the territory from attacks by the Turks and corsairs, and communicated with the other towers on the coast, such as Torre Punta Penne and Torre Guaceto. Some recent restoration work has saved it from collapse and being located at the end of a small peninsula, it enjoys a splendid view of the sea and the surrounding nature.
