English: The Newport Tower, also known as the Old Stone Mill, is a round stone tower located in Touro Park in Newport, Rhode Island, the remains of a windmill built in the mid-17th century. It has received attention due to speculation that it is actually several centuries older and would thus represent evidence of pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact. Carbon dating shows this belief to be incorrect.

Other names given to the tower include Round Tower, Touro Tower, Viking Tower, and Newport Stone Tower. The tower is part of the Kay Street-Catherine Street-Old Beach Road Historic District.
