Kiiu Tower, situated in Estonia, stands as a testament to the country's rich history and architectural heritage. The tower, also known as Kiiu torn, has a storied past dating back to medieval times.
Constructed in the 15th century, Kiiu Tower was initially built as a defensive fortress to protect the surrounding area from invaders. Its strategic location provided a vantage point for monitoring and defending the nearby territories.
Throughout the centuries, Kiiu Tower witnessed numerous conflicts and changes of ownership, reflecting the tumultuous history of the region. It served as a stronghold for various rulers, including the Livonian Order, Swedish, and Russian forces, each leaving their mark on the structure.

Over time, as the need for fortified structures diminished, Kiiu Tower underwent several transformations.
