A.D. and for its construction ancient material was used, apparently detached from the ancient Plateaus. The base of the tower measures 11,30x11,20m. The wall thickness is 1.60m. The saved height is 8 meters. That is to say, it is a relatively massive tower. The ground floor of 7.5m is arched and divided into two parts by a wall of 80 cm thick. At the base of the tower there are two openings that were probably not the original doors as such towers were accessed from the upper floor by a staircase that was usually mobile. In the younger years the tower housed a corridor and perhaps the base doors were then opened. On the outside it is relatively intact. The full height of the tower is not saved. It seems that there was no other floor and the roof was reasonably covered with parapets and possibly loopholes for better protection of the defenders.
