The Tower of Askre was a ruined tower on the southern shores of Lake Kopais in Boeotia, Greece.
During the Peloponnesian War, the tower ruins was used by a group of bandits as a hideout. It was later visited by the misthios Kassandra, who eliminated the bandits there and recovered one of the Ainigmata Ostraka.[1]
