    Saracen Tower (17th century)
    After the invasions and robberies of Turkish pirates in the last years of the 16th century, the Papal State finally decided to build a series of towers, along the marina, from Tavollo to Bellaria, to defend the inhabitants of the coast.


    Inside them, at that time very high above the dunes and the beach, there was a garrison of five soldiers and a commander, equipped with "arquebuses, pushguns, powder and fuses". At the ringing of the bell, in case of danger, the inhabitants could "lock themselves up" inside and organize themselves for defense.
