The Peace Tower (French: Tour de la Paix) is a focal bell and clock tower sitting on the central axis of the Centre Block of the Canadian parliament buildings in Ottawa, Ontario. The present incarnation replaced the 55-metre (180 ft) Victoria Tower after the latter burned down in 1916, along with most of the Centre Block; only the Library of Parliament survived. It serves as a Canadian icon and had been featured prominently on the Canadian twenty-dollar bill directly adjacent the queen's visage, until the change to polymer.

  • La tour de la Paix est une tour horloge et un clocher bâti sur l'axe central de la façade du Parlement du Canada, à Ottawa, en Ontario. L'édifice actuel remplace la tour Victoria, haute de 55 mètres, détruite lors de l'incendie de 1916, qui avait ravagé la majeure partie du parlement. Devenue un symbole du Canada, la tour apparaît sur l'envers des billets de cinquante dollars canadiens ainsi que sur les billets de vingt dollars. (fr)

Tour de la Victoire et de la Paix) – centralny dzwon i wieża zegarowa znajdujące się w środkowej osi Centre Block, głównego budynku kanadyjskiego parlamentu w Ottawie.
