Statue of Giant is an imposing and striking structure in reinforced concrete, leaning against a spur of rock overlooking homonymous beach. Created in 1910 by architect Francesco Levacher and the sculptor Arrigo Minerbi, Statue of Giant, depicting Neptune, is 14 meters high and weighs 170 tons. The statue, which adorned Villa Pastine together with a large shell-shaped terrace, was damaged by the bombings of Second World War.
