The Torre Cesarea is a sixteenth-century tower in Porto Cesareo that is part of a complex of coastal towers that are a striking feature of the entire Salento region. With its quadrangular shape, it has two communicating floors and stands out with all its beauty in the centre of Porto Cesareo in Piazza Nazario Sauro. Currently home to the headquarters of the Porto Cesareo Guardia di Finanza (Customs and Excise), it has been debated in the past whether it should be used for the Porto Cesareo Marine Biology Museum or for other activities aimed at relaunching its strong tourist vocation. However, the Torre Cesarea remains an important historical testimony of coastal defence in past centuries as well as an impressive tourist attraction worthy of note. The Torre Cesarea is waiting to be photographed... enjoy your stay in Porto Cesareo!
