The Tour de Farinole (Template:Lang-co) is a Genoese tower located in the commune of Farinole (Haute-Corse) on the west coast of Cap Corse.

The tower was one of a series of coastal defences built by the Republic of Genoa between 1530 and 1620 to stem the attacks by Barbary pirates.[1] The tower was built in 1562[2] and is included in a list compiled by the Genoese authorities in 1617 that records that the tower was guarded at night by two men who were paid by the village of Farinole.[3]

In 1993 the tower was listed as one of the official historical monuments of France.[2]
