Torre di Guevara, Renaissance tower in Cartaromana Bay, Ischia, Italy.

The Guevara Tower presents a square base structure with three floors containing four rooms each, situated facing the Aragonese Castle.

Giovanni di Guevara constructed this defensive tower in the late 1400s after receiving his knighthood from King Alfonso I of Aragon.

The interior walls contain preserved frescoes, including landscapes and characters connected to drawings by Flemish painter Jan Vredemann de Vries.

Visitors can access the tower via Via Nuova Cartaromana 60, with guided tours available every day except Mondays.

Recent restoration work uncovered a fresco depicting Ischia Ponte village and its castle as they appeared during the 15th century.
