The exact year when the tower was built is not known, but it is mentioned in a report written in 1597 for the Genoese authorities by the engineer Britio Tramallo and the lawyer Gieronimo Bonaparte. The report gives the dimensions of three structures on the island: a chapel, a round tower and the surviving small square tower. The small tower (la torretta piccola) now known as the Tour de Castelluccio, is recorded as being 5.6 m (18 ft) in height with walls 0.63 m (2.1 ft) thick at the base reducing to 0.31 m (1.0 ft) at the top. The large round tower was 6 m (20 ft) in height and 7.75 m (25.4 ft) in diameter. It sat on the highest point of the Grande Sanguinaire island but was demolished in the 19th century when the existing lighthouse was constructed. In Genoese documents the large round tower was referred to as the Sanguinare di Fuori or the Sanguinare di Mare while the Tour de la Parata was the Sanguinare di Terra.

Financée par un impôt collecté auprès des villageois, la tour de Farinole a été construite en 1562. C'était l'une des premières édifiées. La tour était placée en vue des tours de Vecchiaia au sud et de Negru au nord, de façon qu'un signal donné de l'une d'elles pouvait être aperçu de ses voisines. Pendant plusieurs siècles, ces tours ont servi à prévenir, à l'aide de feux, les habitants des côtes, des dangers qui les menaçaient et à leur donner refuge s'ils n'avaient point le temps de se réfugier à l'intérieur des terres. Protection La tour de Farinole est inscrite monument historique par arrêté du 23 juin 1993.

Tour de Fiorentina

La tour de Fiorentina ou Fiorentine est située sur la commune de San-Giuliano, en plaine orientale, dans le département français de la Haute-Corse. Elle est relativement bien conservée malgré un pillage évident de ses pierres[réf. nécessaire]. Description La Tour génoise de Fiorentina a été érigée en 1580 sur la plage de San-Giuliano. Elle est entourée de végétation à quelques mètres du sable et à 30 mètres de la mer. Faites de gros galets et de mortiers, sa façade murale occidentale est couverte de lichen jaune. On y accède, à partir du parking de la plage de Fiorentina, en remontant un sentier sur 1 km vers le nord. L'édifice fait environ 9 mètres de diamètre sur une base circulaire plus large que le reste de l'architecture. Sa hauteur originelle est incertaine compte tenu de son état de délabrement ; on constate toutefois que la tour était sur deux niveaux avec une porte pour chaque niveau, et un escalier intérieur ou extérieur.
