Tower Style and the Three Lost Floors

Its Gothic architecture suggests that it was built around the thirteenth century.
The octagonal-based tower, originally branched off into a smooth barrel and ended with three modular floors, delimited by sandstone string courses, characterized by four mullioned windows similar to those of Torre Troiana (Trojan Tower). A terrace with Ghibelline crenellation adorned the top, and Torre de Regibus then reached 39 meters in height.
Unfortunately, three of the original nine floors were demolished, and the tower underwent a major lowering.

The Corner of the Three Kings

The tower takes its name from the family that owned the surrounding area, the King or De Regibus.
It was part of a more articulated defensive complex that included two other towers: It is still possible to see one of a square shape and lowered to the level of the surrounding roofs, located at the opposite corner between Corso Alfieri and Via Roero, that is Tower Quartero .
For this reason the area is still called today as the corner of the three kings.
