Among the so many done
towers to erect from the viceroys along all the coasts of the
Kingdom in Naples, in the ache succeeded attempt to embank the
Turkish raids and corsairs coming from the sea, interesting it is
Tower you Pave. I concern to the particular typology in which this
tower could reenter, |

they are not present in
this building enough elements for a specific classification at
least in the respects of the coastal towers of the solo Kingdom in
Naples of census, for these zones owed to Fault (Fault, passim
[1970-74-75-78]), they have been in relief some affinities
partial tipologiche, connected mainly to different and not
adjoining coastal lines; but a conspicuous number of examples
stays however not reentered here in none of the classifications
until you operate: neither among the towers typical of the Kingdom,
with shoe base and caditoie in varying number, neither completely
among those of the area of Narḍ, to which Bircks Tower can have
approached for form and dimensions. A more substantial approach,
for manifold aspects, it is possible to do with big part of the
towers in defense of the shore of the Lazio, made to erect in the
same period from the State of the church (De Rossi 1974). Already
for dimensions similar to a lot of of them, Bircks Tower is united
you for the fundamental characteristic of the external covering in
bricks; besides those that are the brackets of support of the
caditoie in the towers of the lazio, in this they are reduced to
few angular shelves, but of peer sizing and position, even if here
they sustained with every probability advanced platforms of
sighting. Far 300 meters from the sea, on a sandy dune in desert
origin and reforested by a trentennio, Bircks Tower gives the
immediate feeling of one the urine having in fact a width to the
ground of mt. 13x13 and analogous height. You raises with a base
flood for around halves the whole height, scarp up to the first
one of the two towers in stone marapiano fungenti. From the entry
to N-O to elevated quota, attainable with flying staircases, it is
entered in a first vain plant of redoubts dimensions that it had
functions of connection among the two floors of life, and of whose
structures of slope nothing has remained. To the sides of this
there are two places of a little greater while of forehead, toward
sea, it is entered in the most greater environment, become vain
only with the soprastante for the collapse of the time to
intermediary barrel. There is to this first level an opening with
height of man from the primitive floor in the wall to N-E, and so
to the superior plan toward sea, together with 5 windows on three
sides and a fireplace on the side S-O. |
