The Azadi Tower , formerly known as the Shahyad Tower , is a monument located on Azadi Square in Tehran, Iran and marking the west entrance to the city.

Architect Hossein Amanat was tasked to design the tower. His ideas were based upon classical and post-classical Iranian architecture, popular influences on art in the 1960s following the White Revolution. Iran's increasing wealth sparked modernization programs and sent the art industry into a renaissance-like period.
