| - La Torre de Nonza (en cors: Torra di Nonza) és una torre de guaita situada dalt d'un penya-segat anomenat Torra, al municipi de Nonza, a l'illa de Còrsega (França). Està declarada 'Monument historique'. No és una torre genovesa, com les altres de l'illa, ja que va ser construïda el 1757 per ordre de Pasquale Paoli per tal de vigilar l'entrada del golf de Saint Florent. De planta quadrada, està construïda amb pedra i esquist i coronada per merlets. Va ser escenari de la rendició dels independentistes corsos enfront les tropes franceses el 1768. (ca)

Im Jahre 1926 wurde er in die Liste historischer Denkmäler Frankreichs aufgenommen. (de)

The tower of Nonza is famous for its siege in 1768, during the war between Pasquale Paoli's independent Corsica and France. The troops protecting the village of Nonza had been taken prisoner by the French forces north of the village, but the commander of the troops remained in the tower. It is said that he managed to make the French troops believe in a fierce resistance during the siege so that they would agree to his conditions for surrender, which were to let him join the rest of Paoli's troops and grant him the military honours. When he came out of the tower alone, the French commander, stunned, asked where the troops were. He is said to have answered: "here is the commander and the troop". In 1926 the tower was listed as one of the official historical monuments of France. (en)
