wizard tower

Mage's tall stronghold

A wizard tower is a tall, often isolated structure associated with a powerful magic user in fantasy fiction and games.

The tower serves as residence, laboratory, and library—a place of study and arcane experimentation away from ordinary society.

In video games, wizard towers often function as defensive structures or enemy strongholds: We need to take out their wizard tower before the next wave.
