Remains of an early medieval tower in Fuorigrotta that belonged to the Cervati marquises, with an 18th-century plaque.

On via Torre Cervati, between via Manzoni and via Caravaggio, a few traces remain of an early medieval tower, sister of the nearby Torre Ranieri, which belonged to the Cervati marquises.It was almost entirely destroyed for unclear reasons. Parts of the perimeter wall can still be seen, along with a curious 18th-century plaque recalling a royal edict against twelve hunters who had secretly entered a marquis's farm.
