tower definition and meaning

What is a "tower"?

A tower is a tall, slender structure that can either stand independently or be part of a larger building, such as a castle, church, or palace. Towers are usually much taller than they are wide and can be used for various purposes, such as observation, defense, or housing bells. They are often designed to stand out and can be made from materials like stone, brick, or metal. Towers are commonly seen in both historic and modern architecture, symbolizing strength, height, or grandeur. Some towers, like clock towers, also serve as landmarks in cities.

What is a "tower"?

A tower is a tall metal structure typically used to support antennas or transmitters for broadcasting television, radio, or other communication signals. Towers are often placed in open areas to allow signals to reach wide distances. They can vary in height, from relatively short ones to very tall structures, and are often seen in communication networks or broadcasting stations. Towers are built to be strong and stable, with their height helping to transmit signals over long ranges. They are essential for connecting people through wireless communication systems.
