It was built in the 16th century to defend the city from attacks by pirates. HistoryAfter the Battle of Lepanto in 1571, the Barbary pirates continued to raid the Sicilian coastline. In 1582, Uluç Ali attempted to raid Acireale. Although the raid was unsuccessful, the population were afraid of further attacks and began fortifying the area.[1] The Spanish (then the rulers of the Kingdom of Sicily) built the Fortezza del Tocco between 1592 and 1616. The fort was designed by Camillo Camilliani and Vincenzo Geremia. Other nearby fortifications that were also built around the same time as the Fortezza del Tocco include the Torre Alessandrano, the Torre di Sant'Anna and the Garitta di S. Tecla.[1] Some modifications were made to the fort in the early 17th century. It repelled a French attack in 1675.[2] The fort lost its importance and was decommissioned in the 19th century. Its last guns were removed in 1834, and were taken to the Pinacoteca Zelantea de Acireale, where they remain today.[2] Since 1999, the fort and the surrounding area have been a nature reserve. It is open to the public.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|title=La Fortezza del Tocco|url=http://www.aciinfo.it/fortezzatocco|website=aciinfo.it|accessdate=10 September 2015|language=it}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Fortezza del Tocco|url=http://www.etnanatura.it/sentieri/sentieri.php?nome=Fortezza_del_Tocco|website=etnanatura.it|accessdate=10 September 2015|language=it}} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Orlando|first1=Andrea|title=Fortezza Del Tocco|url=http://www.icastelli.it/castle-1322086150-fortezza_del_tocco-it.php|website=iCastelli.it|accessdate=10 September 2015|language=it}} 6 : Acireale|Forts in Sicily|Buildings and structures in the Province of Catania|Buildings and structures completed in the 16th century|Military installations closed in the 19th century|Spanish colonial fortifications |
