The Towers of Hackney was one of many names used to describe a folk art sculpture park made out of large wooden structures in Dalston, London Borough of Hackney. Other names include "The Castle of Hackney", "Snippa" and "Silentpark".^{[citation needed]} The sculpture park was developed by different people living in the area for almost 30 years,^[1] and was demolished in 2009.

Just as the participants shifted so did the overall appearance of the structures. The park was also used as a children's playground and a community garden. Artist Emanuel Almborg used the site and the stories about it as inspiration for his project The Rest Is Silence, which has resulted in talks, exhibitions and a book.

The sculpture was dismantled in January 2009, to make way for new developments in the area.^[2]
