Description: This Venetian style building looks like a big chess piece and was built in the 16th century. It is sometimes called the Bloody Tower because it was used as a prison and for executions.
Now it is a multi level museum with displays detailing the history of the city. As you walk up the indoor, circular stone stairs, you will see great views of the harbour and town from its 6 story windows. It is located right by the harbour and the seaside promonade that passes it is a nice place for a relaxing stroll.
It is about 2 blocks from the archeological museum and is on a main bus route.
