Torre Colomera, Military watchtower in Oropesa del Mar, Spain.
The circular stone tower stands on a limestone promontory near El Bovalar recreational area, 3 kilometers south of Oropesa del Mar.
Built in 1553 during the reign of Fernando de Antequera, the tower formed part of a coastal defense network against Barbary pirate attacks.
The monument received recognition as a Cultural Heritage Site by the Valencian Government's General Directorate of Artistic Heritage.
Visitors can reach Torre Colomera through the Via Verde del Mar path, which connects multiple historical structures along the Mediterranean coast.
The tower functioned as an auxiliary surveillance point to Torre del Rey, maintaining visual contact with neighboring defensive structures.
