Torre San Giovanni La Pedata

The tower is most probably named after an ancient devotional chapel, while the origin of the term Pedata is unknown. The San Giovanni La Pedata tower was built in local stone, and is characterised by the classic military architecture of the time, with specific tasks aimed at sighting possible enemy ships; the tower communicated to the south with Torre Pizzo and to the north with the fortifications of Gallipoli. Today the tower is home to a marine biology station; Torre San Giovanni La Pedata is part of the region"s cultural and historical heritage, representing an important reference point for the history and tradition of the Salento.
