Kula Belforti, visoka 28 metara, podijeljena na pet katova, četverokutna je osnovna građevina čiji donji dio ima dvodimenzionalni oblik izveden iz izmjeničnih redova svijetlog i tamnog kamena. Zidovi su debeli od više od tri metra baze do oko dva metra najvišeg dijela. Između pukotina na stranama, sve lučno i asimetrično raspoređenih, od posebnog su interesa dva okulara, strateški usmjerena jedan prema tvrđavi Volterra, a drugi prema tvrđavi Sillan.
Izgrađena je u 14.stoljeću po nalogu obitelji Belforti Volterra na već postojećem manjem tornju. Mislili biste, zapravo, da je toranj bio dio opsežnijeg rada utvrda koji je uključivao zidove s nekoliko maloljetničkih kula. Toranj je bio simbol uspon na vlast ove obitelji, koja je, nakon dugog spora s suparničke obitelji iz Allena, u 1340 je zarobio inninsus.
Nakon dugog razdoblja napuštanja, krajem 1960-ih toranj je kupio Emilio Jesi, proizvođač kave i veliki ljubitelj umjetnosti. Danas je toranj privatni hotel, ali otvoren za vođene ture.
