Torre di Cannai: Sant'Antioco Nella parte meridionale dell'isola di Sant'Antioco in località “Turri”, sorge una torre di avvistamento che venne realizzata sotto il governo del conte Lorenzo Bogino. Egli infatti riordinò l'amministrazione delle torri litoranee erette sotto la dominazione spagola del re Filippo II. Già parecchioi tempo prima i cittadini di Iglesias, interessati a coltivare terre nell'isola di Sant'Antioco, avevano rivolto una supplica al re di Sardegna, nella quale offrivano il proprio aiuto per la costruzione di torri nell'isola. Carlo Emanuele III, per questo, diede ordine al vicerè Cacherano di Bricherasio di predisporre la costruzione delle due torri già progettate nell'isola. Nel 1757 fu costruita la torre progettata dall'ingegnere militare Vallin; essa sorge sul capo “su moru”, promontorio meridionale dell'isola, oggi chiamato “Turri”. In questo tratto di mare erano solite ancorarsi le flottiglie turche, fino ai primi decenni dell'Ottocento. la Torre svolse un'importante opera di avvistamento e comunicazione di notizie ai reparti militari preposti alla difesa dell'isola di Sant'Antioco durante il tentativo di invasione francese del 1793 ed in occasione delle ultime due incursioni tunisine del 1812 e del 1815.
