Torre di San Vincenzo, Medieval tower in San Vincenzo, Italy.

The Torre di San Vincenzo stands on three levels with a square base and features defensive walls covered in plaster near the port area.

The Pisans constructed this coastal tower in the thirteenth century to strengthen their maritime defense system along the southern coastline.

The structure exemplifies the medieval military architecture of Tuscany through its original design with a drawbridge entrance and observation points.

The tower connects to a residential building on its landward side, where the external staircase that led to the entrance once stood.

The tower's top terrace, bordered by battlements, replaced an eighteenth-century four-vault roof structure that previously crowned the building.
