El Fadrí, also known as the Fadrí Tower, is a standing alone bell-tower of the Gothic procathedral Castelló Cathedral of Castellón de la Plana, Spain.
Commencing in 1440 and completed in 1604, it is an octagonal building about 58 metres high. The structure is built in Valencian Gothic style and holds the status of Bién de Interés Cultural.
A discontinuous spiral staircase gives access to the clock chamber, the clergyman's cell, the bell ringer's home, and the bell chamber.
