The Tower of Girone is a medieval tower located in the Piazza delle Erbe in Vicenza, at the back of the Palladio, to which the tower is connected by the Arco degli Zavatteri.
Currently not open to the public, the Tower of Torment takes its name from the fact that it served as a place of torture and imprisonment from the mid-seventeenth century to the mid-19th century.
