Torretta della Bonifica The ruins of the ancient tower testify to the reclamation works carried out in the Middle Ages by the monks of the nearby abbadia island, to drain and make fertile soil what was formerly a lake extension and swampy territory called Canneto. Some very close finds, attributed to the Etruscan period, suggest that the first reclamation works date back to even earlier periods. The structure was used both for the construction and for the maintenance and monitoring of the underlying extraction channel dug in the tunnel, which still collects and disposes of water today.
