მდებარეობა: San Mauro Cilento, Salerno – ITALY
The coastal towers of the Kingdom of Naples formed a comprehensive defensive, surveillance and communication system along the coastline. They were built to counter the frequent raids by Saracens and Corsairs. The Torre FIUMAROLA stands directly on the seafront, guarding the coast near the “FIUMAROLA” stream in San Mauro municipality. Construction began in 1580 and was completed in 1608, using stones extracted directly from the beach in front of the site. THE RESTORATION The tower has been restored and repurposed as a holiday residence. The project includes: • A ground level designed for hospitality and dining activities. • Two upper levels, accessible via an external stone staircase, designed for residential use. • A panoramic rooftop terrace on the top level, offering sweeping views of the sea and the nearby village of Acciaroli. • A surrounding garden area, enclosed by a stone wall and secured with iron gates, providing protection on the sides facing the stream and the sea. • The installation of an external panoramic elevator is planned.
