Campanile di San Martino, Romanesque bell tower in Bollengo, Italy.
The San Martino bell tower displays six floors of architectural elements with five frames supporting hanging arches connected to angular pilasters.
In 1250, residents from Paerno village were required to relocate to the fortified town of Ivrea, leaving the bell tower as the sole remnant.
The structure, known locally as Ciucarun, represents the architectural transition period of medieval religious buildings in the Piedmont region.
The bell tower stands on private property in the Serra Morenica area, requiring advance permission for close-up observation.
The western side base reveals an arched entrance, now sealed, which provided access to the original connecting church demolished in 1731.
