The “Lantern Tower” was built in the sixteenth century: it was under construction around the sixties, and a “Memorial” of 1570, kept in the State Archive of Messina, complains that it has not yet been completed. It has a cylindrical structure, was reinforced laterally in later eras and is accessed by means of a masonry staircase. Conceived as a “lantern tower”, but certainly also as a watchtower, it has retained its ancient role of source of signals to sailors. It can rightly be defined as a panoramic point of regional importance: from it you can admire the horizon from Capo Calava to Capo Rasocolmo, with all the Aeolian Islands, and, to the south, the Gulf of Milazzo and that of Patti.
