Description

The current building, which illustrates the fortifications of the 17th and 18th centuries, was erected after the island was taken over in 1763, as part of the defensive development of all the landing places which had started in 1745. Two masonry structures blocked the beach on both sides of the complaint. A coastal cure allows you to monitor the day and night zone, which makes it one of the few to still exist on the island.
