The Tower is very close to the house and one can walk to admire the landscape and visit the small archaeologic collection.
The square is also home to night events in the summer. The Tower is the perfect location for civil weddings that often take place there.
The Tower of Calasetta was built in 1729 as a watchtower and defense tower against attacks from the sea, mainly at the hands of Arab pirates.
Built of red trachyte, a typical stone from the island, it stands at the hilltop of the village and overlooks the beautiful beach of Sottotorre to let you admire a beautiful view of St. Peter’s Island and Carloforte.
