The Trivio Tower

This tower was built in the 16th century at the centre of the homonymous square. It is 50 metre tall and has a squared plan. It consists of ‘Tufelli' made of basaltic lava alternated with bricks. Its superior part is characterized by the first three floors with mullions and the last floor with double series of single mullions.

Near the tower there is the Trivio Church, rebuilt following the design of Maderno, and characterized by a neoclassic façade.
