Window of the Eye

From Tolkien Gateway
The Nazgûl by Ted Nasmith.

The Window of the Eye was a window in the topmost tower of Barad-dûr.[1] It faced westwards in the direction of Mount Doom.[2] It is possible that it was one of the windows from which Sauron gazed on the northwestern lands of Middle-earth.
