Der Zwehrenturm, auch Zwehrener Turm genannt, ist ein Überbleibsel der ehemaligen Stadtbefestigung Kassels, die zwischen 1767 und 1774 abgetragen wurde. Er wurde im Jahr 1330 im gotischen Stil erbaut und diente als Stadttor in Richtung Frankfurt. Bis ins 17. Jahrhundert war im unteren Teil des Turms ein Gefängnis für Häftlinge besserer Stände eingerichtet, die meist aus dem Umfeld des hessischen Hofes kamen.
