The Faro de Moncloa is a 92-metre (302 ft)-high transmission tower with an observation deck at the Plaza De Moncloa, Madrid, Spain. It was envisioned by architect Salvador Pérez Arroyo and was built in 1992. The tower was closed to the public from 2005 to 2015, when new safety regulations were introduced after the Windsor Tower fire took place earlier that year. It reopened to the public in April 2015.
