Torre Civica, Romanesque belfry in Piazza dei Signori, Treviso, Italy.

The Torre Civica rises 48 meters from the Palazzo del Podestà, standing as the tallest tower in the center of Treviso.

Built in 1218 during the communal period, the tower was integrated into the Palazzo del Podestà expansion between 1265 and 1268.

The bell chamber contains a 2,700-kilogram civic bell, ranking as the third largest in the Veneto region after Padua and Verona.

The tower features a large clock face directed toward Piazza dei Signori, marking time for the central square below.

During World War II, the tower housed an air raid siren that signaled the start of American bombing on April 7, 1944.
