Medieval tower located at the entrance to the town and dating back to the mid-12th century, it was a construction with military functions. Fairly well preserved, it still bears the visible coat of arms of the Caccia family.

In the Middle Ages, Mandello Vitta was a free village: a town without duties and with toll functions. The toll tower dates back to around the 12th century. It is what remains of the fortification. It probably overlooked the ancient Via Biandrina; in fact, a large arch, now walled up, is still visible in the lower part.

The locality of Sillavengo was already permanently inhabited in Roman times, as evidenced by the finds currently kept at the Civic Museum of Novara and coming from a necropolis: among a group of glass funerary objects, dating back to the 1st century AD, a dove-shaped unguent bottle and a ribbed cup stand out; also noteworthy is a small lamp from the 4th or 5th century AD, of the so-called "African" type. A small Roman altar in granite, on which in the past one could read the dedication Iovi Optimo Maximo, is still found today at the Church of San Giovanni.

Well-preserved tower from the 12th century, the only remaining part of a system of fortifications built on the ancient road that connected Biandrate and Romagnano and to Valsesia. About thirty meters high, with a square plan, in brick, it shows traces of subsequent ancient renovations.
