La torre (detta anche inizialmente Torre di San Nicolò) veniva iniziata a costruire nel 1765 ma ancora nel 1777 non era compiuta. Fu ultimata solo nel 1785. La torre sorvegliava l’ingresso della spiaggia di Cala Domestica in cui era un porticciolo d’imbarco dei minerali provenienti dalle varie miniere della zona. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale fu utilizzata come posto di osservazione.
