Torre di Bebe, Medieval defensive tower in Chioggia, Italy.
The Torre delle Bebbe stands as a brick fortification structure near Ca' Bianca, south of Ca' Pasqua, along the Gorzone canal in Chioggia.
The tower, initially constructed between 742 and 745 during Doge Deusdedit's reign, served as a military outpost to protect the southern borders of Venice.
The archaeological excavations at Torre delle Bebbe revealed numerous metal, glass, and stone artifacts, documenting daily life between the 12th and 17th centuries.
The site contains multiple archaeological layers accessible through guided tours, offering insights into medieval military and commercial activities.
Archaeological findings indicate the tower functioned as both a customs checkpoint and residence for high-ranking military officials, as evidenced by discovered coins and ducal seals.
