The tower stands imposing with two well-defined bodies. At the top it ends in a dome and a cross.
It has 4 bells and a clock on each face.
It reminds me of a lighthouse.
I think it is from the 18th century, which is when the facade was finished.
The building is a Dominican convent built in the 16th century and completed in the 18th.
