Torre Jafi, Medieval coastal tower in Licata, Italy
Torre Jafi rises from the Agrigento coastline of Sicily, serving as a strategic observation point with direct views over the Mediterranean Sea.
The structure dates from the period when coastal towers protected Sicily's shores, forming part of an extensive network of defensive fortifications across the island.
The tower represents a testament to Sicily's maritime heritage and stands as an architectural example of medieval military engineering along the Mediterranean coast.
Visitors can reach Torre Jafi by following the coastal road from Licata, with parking available near the structure during daylight hours.
The tower maintains its original structural elements and provides a vantage point where observers can spot the exact same seafront that medieval guards monitored centuries ago.
