The site chosen for the construction of the tower was already known in the past. The place is cited as Mutatio ad Decimum, that is, a post station for changing horses on the Via Traiana in Roman times between the city of Egnazia and the mansio Speluncas (Torre Santa Sabina) before reaching Brindisi.
The tower was built by the Aragonese. It was later definitively called the tower of San Leonardo as it fell within the land owned by the abbey of San Leonardo di Siponto. The tower was completed in 1569 and built in a square shape to allow the use of more cannons.
Once its original function ceased, the tower was restored without historical-artistic attention to the structure and materials, and its appearance was completely remodeled. The only original part is the lower, truncated pyramid base, on the sea side of the structure, on the rear side. Today its intended use is private. [ref.
