Fodor's Expert Review Torre dell'Elefante
Cagliari
Editor's Note: This property is currently undergoing renovations.
This medieval fortified tower was built in 1307 by Giovanni Capula, who also designed the San Pancrazio tower. Standing 100 feet high at the seaward end of Cagliari's bastions, it was used as a prison in the 1800s and is one of the main entrances to the Castello.
