Miggiano tower
The task of the structure was aimed at defending the eponymous harbor, probably to protect the safety of the miners who worked in the surrounding carparo stone quarries and they sent the ashlars in the whole county area to provide useful materials for the buildings of that period. The exact year of construction is unknown, but it's reported in the cartography of the 16th century.
