A museum to honor Saint Marinus, created in 1956, is located in this tower and showcases over 1,550 weapons dating from the medieval era to the modern day.The tower is a very important part of Sammarinese history[1] It was constructed in the 13th century on the remains of an older Roman fort.[2] Just like other two towers in San Marino, it is also depicted on the national flag.
