With the decline of shipping and trade in the port of Cadaqués in the first third of the 20th century, the lighthouse lost its strategic importance and fell into disrepair. In 1982, due to its dilapidated state, there were plans to demolish it and replace it with a new structure. However, the resistance of the residents of Cadaqués prevented this, as they argued that the lighthouse was part of the city's historical heritage. This protest led to its complete restoration.

The Torre de Norfeu is a building in the municipality of Roses (Alt Empordà) protected as a cultural asset of local interest. Located within the small peninsula that forms the Cap de Norfeu, on top of the highest hill of all those that make up the orography of the area, with a great command over the sea. These are the remains of a watchtower located in these contours. Circular in plan, with a slightly sloping profile and a large diameter, the tower is built with stone of various sizes and some ashlars, without being worked, arranged in irregular rows and bound with lime mortar. It currently has an approximate height of about six meters and maintains the hemispherical vault that covered the ground floor. The interior walls still maintain remains of the hydraulic lime layer that coated them and the bottom was built with a fairly well-preserved tile pavement, since the floor was intended to be a rainwater collection cistern. In the center of the vault, the register through which the water was extracted and the first floor was reached is still preserved.[1] Currently, access to the interior of the tower is through a slightly raised chasm, which gives access to the space of the cistern. Large fragments of built walls and scattered rubble, from the demolition of the upper part, are scattered around the construction. Source: https://ca.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torre_de_Norfeu
