Tor di Caldano, Coastal tower in Lavinio, Italy
The circular stone tower rises 9 meters high with a diameter of 10 meters on a rocky promontory along the Mediterranean coast of Lazio.
Built in the mid-17th century, the tower protected sulfur mines operating from 1569 to 1828 and sustained damage during British naval attacks in 1813.
The tower stands within the Tor Caldara Regional Natural Reserve, established in 1988, preserving both historical structures and natural landscapes.
Visitors can access the reserve Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, with special openings on selected dates in December.
The surrounding area contains active sulfur springs that create yellow stains on the coastline and produce a distinctive mineral scent.
