The Tour de Toga or Tour de Pietrabugno (Corsican: Torra di Toga) was a Genoese tower located in the commune of Ville-di-Pietrabugno on the east coast of Cap Corse on the French island of Corsica. The tower stood 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) north of the centre of the town of Bastia. The ruins were demolished in the 20th century.
The tower was one of a series of defences constructed by the Republic of Genoa between 1530 and 1620 to stem the attacks by Barbary pirates.
