GALATA TOWER
Galata Tower was built by a Genoese colony in 1348 as a part of their fortifications. From the early 13th century, after the fourth crusade, there had been a Genoese settlement in the city, as Latin Kings had been in powere from 1204 - 1216. Those who built the tower were the decendants of these crusaders.
