Piazza Sant'Oronzo, the beating heart of the city of Lecce

The coastal towers were built around the 16th century for security reasons. In this era, pirate raids were very frequent and the inhabitants, mainly farmers, did not have the necessary means to defend themselves independently. By virtue of this fact, it was decided to build the coastal towers to protect the city from attacks by pirates and barbarians who had the objective of plundering all the riches that a maritime city could possess.
