The Old Tower is a free-standing tower which was deemed a safe place by Papa Smurf in the comic book and cartoon show version of "The Smurfs And The Howlibird". It was used as a hiding place from the Howlibird and has a small crack in the front door wide enough for the Smurfs to run through. It is made of stone, and has a wooden door similar to the kind seen on such characters' houses like Gargamel, Homnibus, and the like. There is a window with a wooden covering near the top, and on the open top part is a loft made to look like some kind of house. Vines have grown up from the bottom to the window, and the tower rests on a hill in a clearing of the forest.
