The Gregorian Tower (Italian: Torre Gregoriana) or Tower of the Winds (Italian: Torre dei Venti) is a square tower and early modern observatory located above the Gallery of Maps, which connects the Villa Belvedere with the Apostolic Palace in Vatican City. The tower was built between 1578 and 1580 to a design by the Bolognese architect Ottaviano Mascherino (who was credited with building the Apostolic Palace) mainly to promote the study of astronomy for the Gregorian Calendar Reform which was commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII and promulgated in 1582. It was then also known as the Tower of Winds. The tower was also called "Specola Astronomica Vaticana", a reference to the Vatican Observatory. Four stages of progressive development have occurred since it was first established. The tower was an edifice of great value for astronomical observations made using a sundial as they provided essential confirmation of the need to reform the Julian calendar.

La tour Grégorienne est construite entre 1578 et 1580, conçue par l'architecte bolonais Ottaviano Mascherino (à qui est également attribuée la construction du palais apostolique), sur ordre du pape Grégoire XIII pour promouvoir principalement l'étude scientifique de l'astronomie, pape qui a également décrété la réforme historique du calendrier grégorien, promulguée en 1582 et qui est aujourd'hui le calendrier civil universel suivi par l'ensemble de la planète.
