Via San Paolo, Perugia
Sciri Tower (or Scalzi Tower) is a building of the thirteenth century. It is the only one left intact among the numerous towers that did earn the city the title of "Turrita": 46 meters high, was built by white limestone blocks measuring homogeneous. On the lintel of the front door you can see the heraldic shield, Sciri's emblem. It is possible that the Tower and the Palace are passed to the family after the defeat and expulsion of Oddi family, in 1488. In the seventeenth century, the property passed to the Conservatory seid of Lucia. The renovation was completed in January 2015.
