The town of Pozzallo is located in Sicilia, Italy. It is in the province of Ragusa. This town is the only coastal town in the province. Pozzallo is an important town in the province. It has history dating back to the 14th century, where the town served as a military and commercial outpost for Modica. The town was once dominated by Arabs and was a refuge location for Arabian warships. Because there were many invasions, a lookout tower was built, which was called Torre Cabrera. The tower remained an important symbol of the town for the years ahead. During 1693, an earthquake devastated this town, leveling almost every structure standing. However, the tower remained erect and is now one of the most popular attractions in Pozzallo. The tower has been restored and can be toured by visitors.
