Hmm - if you pop open that spot on the Google Earth now, you get the same thing except with the shadow a bit more lengthy - it’s obviously a guard tower, judging from the width of the pole attached to the roof.

It’s a water tower or something. Look at the shadow now.

The picture show a water reservoir, used to mantain pressure on the net. You can see another one on italian territory at coordinates UTM x:501680 y:5054718 32T using WGS84 datum.

If you click on the photo it takes you to GoogleSightSeeing.com where there is a larger photo obviously taken at a different time of day when the sun is lower in the sky. The “disc” is obviously a tower of some kind because you can see the shadow now has a “column” connecting to the disc.

Taht’s a water tower, unluckily the place where there are many (In Italy) has a not good resolution to take a look…

well if you look at it now via the link you’ll plainly see the shadow of the tower supporting the structure…

I’m inclined to agree with AliMac. It could be an ATC tower or even a water tower for that matter.
