Belloluogo Tower was built in the fourteenth century. It is a Medieval monument that was the residence of Mary of Enghien, Countess of Lecce and Queen of Naples. This example of Angevin military architecture has a cylindrical shape and a surrounding moat still filled with water today. The fifteenth-century Park Tower was the suburban residence of Count Orsini del Balzo: it has a round structure and a thick defence wall, in the past it also had a drawbridge and a moat.
