Cabot Tower, located in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, is a historic tower on Signal Hill. Built in 1898 to commemorate John Cabot's landing in Newfoundland and Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, the tower has played a significant role in history. It was used for flag signaling and even received the first trans-Atlantic wireless message in 1901.

Today, Cabot Tower stands as a symbol of St. John's and offers visitors walking trails and an interpretation center to learn more about its fascinating past.
