Torre Monumental, formerly known as Torre de los Ingleses, is a clock tower located in the barrio of Retiro in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is situated in the Plaza Fuerza Aérea Argentina by San Martín Street and Avenida del Libertador.

After the Falklands War in 1982, the tower's original name was dropped, though some still call it Torre de los Ingleses.
