Tips

The Porto tower, better known as the Aragonese Tower, is an icon of the area located in the city's port. Built in 1325 on the orders of the Aragonese admiral Carroz after the conquest of the territory, the tower had the dual function of sighting and protection of the city centre. Its octagonal structure recalls the Catalan architectural style.

Over the centuries, it has taken on various tasks: in the 15th century it was used as a customs office for tax control, in the 16th century it was used as a bulwark against attacks by Barbary pirates, in the 17th century the guardians also took on the task of monitor ships to prevent the spread of the plague, while in the 20th century it was converted into a lighthouse.

Porto Torres doesn't have much to offer except for the harbor. Small shopping opportunities are available there, and the center offers restaurants.
