01About the place
A watchtower atop Puig del Pedró, at the northwestern edge of the old town of l'Escala, overlooking Cala de la Creu, the beaches of Empúries, and the bay of Roses.
Documented since 1543, it used fire to warn of the presence of pirates; in the 18th century it was restored and served as a prison, and is now a listed cultural asset of national interest.
