It is assumed that the tower, around which the castle of Tordandrea was later built, was built in 1297.
Its name derives from the owner of the tower itself, Andrea.
For defensive purposes, in 1431 the tower was fortified by creating a wall, obtained by unifying the external walls of the houses to connect them together until they became a single body, the castle body, which could only be accessed through the single portal, still existing, equipped with a drawbridge over the moat surrounding the castle.
