An escutcheon once stood over the main doorway with De Redin's coat of arms, although this is no longer in place.

After World War II the tower was privately owned but it was eventually abandoned.

Over the years Aħrax Tower was heavily modified so it is now difficult to see which parts are original and which were added later.

[4] In November 2016 the tower was granted to heritage NGO Din l-Art Ħelwa for a loan period of 10 years, with the scope of this agreement being the conservation, restoration and rehabilitation of the building.

The works were finished in June 2021 and the tower was reopened to the general public for educational purposes.
