Torre Specchia Ruggeri - Melendugno
In the municipality of Melendugno, in the town of Torre Specchia Ruggeri stands this beautiful example of a 16th-century tower that towers a few metres from the sea and is about 5 metres high. Torre Specchia Ruggeri is part of the complex watchtower system erected during the 16th century to defend the entire Salento coast from the continuous incursions of Saracen pirates; the tower communicated to the south with Torre San Foca and to the north with Torre San Cataldo, the latter having completely disappeared. Today Torre Specchia Ruggeri appears to be in a state of complete abandonment and the signs of some structural changes that the tower has undergone over time are visible from its current shape. From the top of this evocative promontory there is a wonderful panorama and the entire stretch of coastline in question retains that uncontaminated appearance; Torre Specchia Ruggeri is easily reached by travelling along that stretch of coastline from San Cataldo to San Foca.
