Molinazzo Tower
A few tens of meters from the Vittorio Giustolisi tower there are two "cave" tombs. From the currently visible remains it is probable that it is a tomb with two cells. On the tip of the same name, traces of a settlement dating back to the final Eneolithic period and the remains of medieval port structures.
