Tour du Quadraro, Medieval tower in Quadraro district, Rome, Italy

The Torre del Quadraro is a quadrangular tower standing on Piazza dei Consoli amid modern buildings and connected to a historic farmhouse structure. Its stone walls feature battlements at the top and were constructed from tufa blocks with marble fragments embedded throughout.

The tower controlled the first stretch of the via Tuscolana and was probably in visual contact with the Torre di Centocelle. Its name and that of the surrounding area seem to come from G. G. Guadralis, who received the land in concession from the monks of Sant'Alessio in 1164. The structure is now managed by the Circolo Sociale Anziani La Torretta of Municipio Roma VII, which restored it.
