Era il campanile della chiesa di S. Nicolò, marchionale del castello malaspiniano di Malnido, visibile nella foto dietro il timpano triangolare della chiesa, retta a suo tempo dai frati. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale, un bombardamento colpì la vicina ferrovia, ne divelse rotaie e traversine che finirono sul tetto della chiesa danneggiandolo gravemente. Contrariamente a quanto tanti credono, la chiesa non cadde a causa delle bombe, ma se pur danneggiata, rimase in piedi ed in stato d'abbandono, sino a quando, spogliata di marmi ed arredi, fu abbattuta nel dopo guerra.
It was the bell tower of the church of S. Nicolò, marquis of the Malaspinian castle of Malnido, visible in the photo behind the triangular tympanum of the church, once ruled by the monks. During the Second World War, a bombing struck the nearby railway, uprooting its rails and sleepers which ended up on the roof of the church, seriously damaging it. Contrary to what many believe, the church did not fall due to the bombs, but even if damaged, it remained standing and in a state of abandonment, until, stripped of marble and furnishings, it was demolished after the war.
