Square medieval tower, built as private protection for the Ranieri family's fortified farm.

Torre Ranieri is a medieval tower built not to defend the city but as private protection: it was part of the Ranieri family's large fortified farm.It has four storeys above ground, two of which are in the sloping "a scarpa" base, and a square plan. Restored several times, it is privately owned and can be admired from the outside: a reminder of rural Naples and its villages.
