It is approximately 24 metres height and shaped as a 16-sided polygon. HistoryThe tower is one of the oldest building in Asti and was built in different ages: the red part was made in 1st century BC, while the highest part was built with tuff in 11th century. It was probably one of the two towers of a city gate of Roman period. It is thought to be the place where saint Secundus of Asti was jailed before being decapitated on 30 March 119. In 12th century it became the campanile of an adjacent church, and it still keep this function today. The basement was later filled and walled up to increase stability. A copper steeple was present until 1777, when it was removed as it was unsafe. See also
