The Torre de la Horadada (or Torre Foradada) was built in the 16th century to serve as a coastal watchtower and protect itself from Berber attacks.
The tower, which was built on top of a previous one, is part of a system of coastal watchtowers that during the reign of Felipe II served to defend the coastline. It marked the southern limit of the old Kingdom of Valencia and a town known as Pilar de la Horadada was formed around it.
