The former Torre Littoria (Lictor Tower) of Carbonia is more imposing than similar buildings of its kind from the Fascist period. In fact, this five-story tower housed the offices of the Fascist party as well as the memorial dedicated to Fascist martyrs. This edifice is unique as it brings together the concept of the Casa del Fascio (Fascist party building) and the Lictor Tower within a single symbolic building. The 28-metre high tower is covered by a vestment of red trachyte. As the main façade has nearly no windows, it appears solid and austere, recalling the ancient architecture of Sardinia.
The interiors are ennobled by wall coverings and precious floors. The former directory hall is of particular interest: it is entirely covered with marble and wood and a huge window and a balcony showcase the high ceilings. This is also a place where Benito Mussolini stayed during the inauguration of the town. Moreover, the tower is furnished with various artworks, such as the famous futurist painting “The birth of Carbonia” (1938) by Corrado Forlin in the directory hall. In the entrance hall, we can still see the high relief by Venanzo Crocetti (1939), which illustrates Victory.
