28 metara visok i podijeljen na pet spratova, Kula Belforti je zgrada sa četverokutnom bazom, čiji donji dio ima dvobojnu dobijenu s naizmjeničnim redovima svijetlog i tamnog kamena. Zidovi imaju debljinu koja varira od preko tri metra baze do oko dva metra najvišeg dijela. Između pukotina sa strana, sve lučne i asimetrično raspoređene, od posebnog interesa su dva oka okrenuta strateški jednom prema Tvrđavi Volterra, a druga prema Rocca sillana.
Izgrađena je u trećem veku voljom porodice Belforti iz Volterre na već postojećoj kuli manjih dimenzija. Smatra se da je kula bila dio većeg djela utvrđenja koje je uključivalo zid sa nekim manjim kulama. Kula je bila simbol uspona na vlast ove porodice koja je, nakon dugog spora sa suparničkom porodicom Allegretti, 1340.osvojila gospodstvo Volterre.
Nakon dugog perioda napuštanja, krajem 60-ih toranj je kupio Emilio J danas je kula privatni smještajni objekat, ali je otvoren za vođene ture.
