The WoodmenLife Tower (formerly the Woodmen Tower or Woodmen of the World Tower) is a 478.02 feet (145.70 m) high-rise building at 1700 Farnam Street in downtown Omaha, Nebraska, and headquarters of WoodmenLife (officially Woodmen of the World Life Insurance Society) insurance company. Construction of the building began in 1966 and was completed in the spring of 1969. At its completion, the WoodmenLife Tower was the tallest building in the state of Nebraska, overtaking the Nebraska State Capital Building. The WoodmenLife tower would hold this record until 2002, when it was overtaken by First National Bank Tower. The building was featured in the 2002 movie About Schmidt, starring Jack Nicholson and directed by Alexander Payne.

WoodmenLife Tower has been praised for its role in revitalizing the downtown Omaha district and features an LED display that lights up the building for holidays and special events. In 2020, the tower was officially renamed from the Woodmen Tower to the WoodmenLife Tower as part of a larger effort to rebrand the company. Since 1988, the tower has been part of the Nebraska Peregrine Falcon Project, where peregrine falcons breed and nest on the building's 28th floor.
