The Torre della Fara is located in Torre della Fara in the municipality of Celenza sul Trigno in the province of Chieti. The tower is located near the Trigno river and the Ateleta-Biferno tratturo and was in visual connection with neighboring towns and with the monastery of Santa Maria del Canneto in Roccavivara (Molise).
The tower dates back to the 12th century.[1] Even if the toponym recalls the Longobard fara, it is, however, difficult to identify the period of construction of the site.[
The tower has a cylindrical structure and is made of stone[1], but stone fragments are also used to frame the openings and loopholes[2]. The tower is 15 meters high and 6 meters in diameter. The tower has no scarp walls and, at a third of the height there is an opening which, probably, is a raised entrance. Furthermore, inside there are the holes where the beams used to support the various levels. The roof inside is vaulted with a lowered cap. The use of mortar in the Torre della Fara decreases with height[1] just as the thickness of the walls decreases with increasing height
