Porto Tower

Details of the activity

One of the 4 square towers of Corsica

One of the rare square Genoese towers on the island, the Porto tower, originally Porto de Sia, is no less famous. It is located in the municipality of Ota and is on a rocky outcrop at a height of 45 meters in the Gulf of Porto.

Built in the middle of the 16th century, it houses an exhibition on the Corsican shores and a small heather museum at its feet. At its summit, an exceptional panorama of the Gulf of Porto awaits you.
