Spasskaya Tower of Tula Kremlin, Medieval defensive tower in Tula, Russia.

The Spasskaya Tower is a round, blind tower at the western corner of the Tula Kremlin, built in 1514–1520. Its architecture mirrors the Nikitskaya Tower: four combat tiers and a semi-spherical vault in the lower part. A wooden tent roof was added above the tower during restoration in the 1970s.

The Spasskaya Tower is part of the Tula Kremlin, built between 1514 and 1520. It takes its name from the nearby Spasskaya Church. In 16th- and 17th-century scribe books it was also called Vspoloshnaya (Vestovaya), because a bell on a watchtower above its tent roof warned residents of fire or enemy raids. A wooden tent roof was added above the tower during restoration in the 1970s.

The tower's name comes from the Spasskaya church that once stood nearby, not from an icon on its walls. In 16th- and 17th-century scribe books it was also called Vspoloshnaya (Vestovaya) because a bell hung on a watchtower above the tent roof, rung to warn residents of fire or enemy raids.

The Spasskaya Tower stands at the western corner of the Tula Kremlin, not in its central area, so approach along the western wall to reach it. It is a round, blind tower with no gate passage, and its lower part has a semi-spherical vault. The wooden tent roof above it dates from restoration work in the 1970s.

The tower is also called Vspoloshnaya or Vestovaya in 16th- and 17th-century scribe books, because a bell hung on a lookout above the tent roof warned residents of fire or enemy raids. During 1970s restoration a wooden tent roof was added over the tower.
