Torre Leon Pancaldo, Medieval tower in Savona, Italy.
The Torre Leon Pancaldo rises from the port of Savona with its rectangular shape and robust stone walls facing the Mediterranean Sea.
Built in 1392 as part of Savona's coastal defense system, the tower protected the city from maritime threats during the Middle Ages.
The tower bears the name of Leon Pancaldo, a 16th-century Savonese explorer who participated in expeditions across the world's oceans.
Located in Piazza Leon Pancaldo, the tower includes wheelchair access and stands near the city's main transportation connections.
The structure maintains its original medieval defensive features while serving as a central reference point for maritime navigation in the port.
