The Tower of Faith at the National Presbyterian Church rises 173 feet high, a prominent landmark in the northwest Washington neighborhood.
The campanile stands between the Chapel of the Presidents and the front courtyard of the Church, and is visible for blocks around.
The Tower of Faith, in memory of Henry Robinson Luce, was dedicated on May 23, 1972.
The cornerstone of the Church was laid five years earlier, in 1967, by Dwight David Eisenhower.
