Torre Diso is located in the municipality of Castro in the province of Lecce; we are on the south-eastern side of the Salento, on that stretch of coast characterised mainly by cliffs overlooking the Adriatic Sea. Torre Diso is part of that complex defence and sighting project of coastal towers erected during the 16th century to defend the local population from the continuous incursions of the Saracen pirates who raged the Salento coast in those years. Torre Diso takes its name from the nearby town of Diso and stands on a cliff about 40 metres above sea level. Torre Diso communicated to the south with Torre Capo di Lupo and to the north with the fortifications of Castro; today this ancient tower is now reduced to a ruin, a heap of stones swallowed up by the dense vegetation of the Mediterranean maquis, almost merging with the surrounding landscape. The roots of a land certainly cannot be erased and Torre Diso remains an example of historical testimony even if little or nothing remains of a distant past now gone. From the perspective of Torre Diso you can still enjoy an excellent panorama, even if the land today, it must be remembered, falls under private property. Happy summer from Torre Diso.
