Torre di Soriasco, Medieval tower in Santa Maria della Versa, Italy.

The stone tower features a square base and rises twenty meters high, crowned with terracotta friezes beneath a sloping four-sided roof.

Built in the 12th century and restored in 1412, this tower formed part of a defensive system with twelve towers surrounding the village.

The tower represents medieval architectural traditions of Lombardy region, where such structures served as both defensive and status symbols.

Located on a small hill overlooking Val Versa valley, the tower currently functions as a warehouse under private ownership.

The structure maintains its original stone construction and stands as the principal remaining fortification of the ancient walled settlement.
