Hi,

I can't find in the wiki how to correctly tag an historical tower, usually used as a defensive building. In that place there has never been a castle nor was part of a castle. You can find images of the specimens I doubt at [1] and [2].

I'm thinking to use man_made=tower historic=yes, but IMHO I think it's more correct to use historic=tower (that does not appear in the wiki).

A historic and a man_made are no "ground objects" that one can see on any map, they are attributes.
It should be, logically, naturally and structurally:

building=tower    (or any other tag we would agree upon as being an object and not an attribute of an object)
historic=yes      (implicitly meaning tower:historic=yes or)
historic=1200     (for precise minds)
defensive=yes/no  ...other attributes
man_made=yes      (in case of any doubt)

Cheers

André.



Thank you.
